Kroger: The future of food shouldn’t leave hens behind

Kroger’s former Health president, Colleen Lindholz, spoke today at the GLP-1 Shopper Summit about the future of food, health, and the important role grocery retailers play in shaping consumer habits.

But there’s one important part of a better food system that Kroger continues to neglect: animal welfare.

Kroger abandoned its original commitment to source 100% cage-free eggs by 2025, leaving millions of hens confined to cages. If Kroger wants to be a leader in the future of food, it should start by keeping its promises.
