I wanted to write to let you know that in Australia now, you can buy Free Range Pork at the supermarket! Woolworths are now stocking RSPCA certified Free Range Pork in the meat section (as well I might add as quite a good range of organic meat). This has just appeared in the last couple of weeks. I have deliberately not eaten Pork for some time (nor has my family as I am the primary shopper) due to the way Pigs are farmed in cruel, cramped little prison pens (yes even in Australia). So I was really pleased to find this range on offer.
KR Castlemain are also now offering Free Range sliced sandwich ham and bacon However they are labelled 'bred free range' to which a fellow blogger alerted me to - and which means I think they were still raised indoors - so I'm looking in to this and will get back to you with my findings.

The more people who are choosing to eat meat from cruelty free farming practices the more pressure there will be on the mass producers to whom the animals happiness is worthless.
http://www.solutionliving.com.au/ is now stocking "The Ethics of What We Eat" it is really essential reading for anyone wanting to make better informed food choices. So follow the link and head to the shop and then the reading section.
To read more about this and the RSCPA certification process in Australia you can head to http://www.rspca.org.au/ it's a pretty shocking state of affairs for Australia to have such terrible practice in Agriculture.

Is it free range??
Think again. If you purchased this product from Woolworths then it would be 'bred' free range.
Sorry to tell you, your pork was still raised indoors :(
oh no! Sorry have been away from my blog hence delay in comment.. what's the difference? I assumed Bred Free Range meant raised free range?
