Organic Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs

The manufacturer cares about how the animals are raised, and they have ensured that all the fresh chicken in their Meat department is Animal Welfare Certified by the nonprofit Global Animal Partnership. This certification adheres to a tiered 5+ step system with detailed requirements for how the animals are handled, housed, fed, and more.

The certification process starts with the base level, which ensures no cages, crates, or crowding for the chickens. Each subsequent step builds upon the previous requirements, addressing factors such as outdoor access, time spent on pasture, enrichments, and natural light in the barns. By the higher steps, the chickens have continuous outdoor living on pasture, specialty breeds for outdoor production, and a guarantee that they will spend their entire life on the same farm.

Chicken at Whole Foods Market is always Animal Welfare Certified and delicious. There are no gray areas in the Meat department, as all the fresh chicken sold is G.A.P. certified and raised without any antibiotics. The variety of cuts, styles, and preparations available ensures that there is something to suit every taste, whether for single servings or family feasts.

The air-chilled chickens are a particular highlight, as they are certified to meet over 100 animal welfare standards and are raised without any animal byproducts in their feed. This commitment to high-quality, ethically-sourced chicken is a hallmark of the Whole Foods Market Meat department.

Customers can trust that Whole Foods Market has done the work to bring them a tasty bird for any occasion. Whether they prefer skin-on, bone-in thighs with a teriyaki glaze or boneless breasts, the Meat department offers a wide range of just-the-right cuts to suit their culinary preferences.
