Have you noticed that a lot of meat labels have claims like "no antibiotics" and "all natural"? Labels can be misleading. Just because the claim is on the package, doesn't mean it was third-party verified. Also, animals who weren't given any antibiotics may still have been raised in crates, cages or crowded conditions.

That's why G.A.P. Animal Welfare Standards matter. The animals in a crowded barn may be getting what the need (i.e., food and water) but they're not getting what they want. G.A.P.'s base certification requires that farms meet over 100 animal welfare standards including NO cages and NO crates. If the animals are raised with outdoor access, they must have ample shade and enrichments like scratching posts for cattle and wallows for pigs. As farms and ranches meet higher steps or certification levels, the animals are getting more of what they want. Isn't that something that you want too?

So, the next time you're shopping, #MakeitGAP. Our label says the animal was raised to our animal welfare standards and every farm was third-party audited. Learn more about our G.A.P. Standards here: https://globalanimalpartnership.org/standards/.

Transparency matters. Do you look at labels when you're buying meat and other products? The last research study G.A.P. conducted said that 63% of consumers look for labels that call out how the animal was raised when they're buying meat.

When you see the G.A.P. Animal Welfare Certified label, you know that the animal was raised in a safe and enriched environment with no cages, no crates, NO antibiotics, and NO growth hormones. To learn more about our label and step levels that tell you how the animal was raised, visit www.certifiedgap.org.

And the next time you're at the store, #MakeitGAP! Thanks to Naked Truth Chicken for being a G.A.P. Certified partner! (These frozen waffle flavored chicken bites are DELICIOUS by the way!) @ntchicken #transparency #farmanimalwelfare #meatlabels ...

Did you know? G.A.P. Animal Welfare Certification means that EVERY farm is audited EVERY 15 months. Other certification organizations employ a "group model" where only a sample of farms (~10%) have to be audited, but all farms gain certification. Not G.A.P.! When you see our label, you know that every farm was seen and certified by third-party, independent Certifiers to ensure our animal welfare standards were met.

Auditing farms every 15 months is also an important differentiator for G.A.P. We set that timeframe so that our independent auditors are able to review the animals through different lifecycle stages and through different seasons, to ensure the animals' environment and care is meeting our standards.

So why tell you this? We want you to know that the G.A.P. Animal Welfare Certified label is the label you can trust. Always.
