If I wanted to pay £200 to fund systematic animal abuse, I'd have just donated directly to a dog fighting ring. At least they're honest about what they do.Kelly Bronze markets themselves as the premium ethical choice, "bred to be wild," "free-range," "heritage breed," the whole nine yards. Turns out the only thing "heritage" about their operation is that they're keeping alive the fine tradition of lying through your teeth for profit. Joey Carbstrong's investigation showed workers literally playing football with live turkeys. Is that the "wild" part? Because I thought "bred to be wild" meant roaming woodlands, not being selectively bred to be confined and treated like a stress ball by employees having a breakdown.The RSPCA, the people whose literal job is to see horrible things, said the footage was "appalling". When the desensitized professionals are appalled, that's really saying something.Paul Kelly spent YEARS tracking down the last remaining bronze turkeys in the UK to "preserve the breed". If this is preservation, I'd hate to see what extinction looks like. Actually, at this point, extinction might be kinder.£200. TWO HUNDRED POUNDS. For a bird that got kicked, throttled, and thrown in a bin alive. That's £200 to fund a snuff film with giblets.Never again. Hope the Michelin star restaurants are enjoying their "artisanal cruelty". Special mention to Jamie Oliver for lending his wholesome glow to the operation. Because if there’s one thing that makes animal abuse easier to swallow, it’s a celebrity endorsement and a rustic font.Update: Company has gone radio silent since the investigation. Shocking.
