East Bay Animal Advocates asks Lunardi's Supermarket to have a heart for

chickens before Valentine's Day

 

On Sunday, February 11th, East Bay Animal Advocates (EBAA) will ask

Lunardi's Supermarket to stop selling eggs from chickens

raised in overcrowded, wire cages (known as battery cages).

 

Date:

Sunday, February 11th

 

Times & Places:

 

Noon - 1 PM: Lunardi's Supermarket, 1825 El Camino Real, Burlingame

1:30 - 2:00 PM: Lunardi's Supermarket, 100 Skycrest Shopping Center, San

Bruno

2:30 - 3:30 PM: Lunardi's Supermarket, 1085 Alameda, Belmont

 

As a high-end grocery chain, Lunardi's proclaims its purported

commitment to excellence: " We can explain our prices, but we don't ever

want to have to justify our quality. " Recently, EBAA documented

conditions at one of Lunardi's egg suppliers. Shockingly, Lunardi's

still sells eggs from chickens confined in overcrowded, wire cages.

Citing concerns over animal care, EBAA has contacted Lunardi’s many

times without a single response. Moreover, Lunardi's is the lead

competitor of Andronico's Market, which stopped selling battery cage

eggs in October 2006.
