Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is probably one of my favourite TV chefs/celebrities which is pretty ironic considering he's a major meat-eater! However I have to take my hat to the man because he eats proper meat and by that I mean organically reared livestock (usually out of his back garden!). Although I'm a vegetarian I'm not against people eating meat as long as it's decent stuff! I'm sure you'll have heard all about his 'Chicken Out' campaign, well here's what he has to say...

Roast chicken is an iconic dish in British culture. It probably ranks close to the top of most people's list of favourite foods. It may be affordable for the masses, but it is also fit for a king.

But how many of you know about the life your fresh supermarket chickens lead before they reach your table? That their short, intensively farmed indoor existence is managed like a factory production line, to ensure the big retailers can sell them to you for as little as £2 a bird? Is that all the life an animal, born and raised to feed us, is worth?
