There is a wide gap between advertising and actual animal husbandry. This is shown by the latest research by Tier im Fukus:
Pig Report
or
The commodity chicken
.

The animal rights organization
tier-im-fokus.ch (TIF)
and the petitioners are calling on the federal government to print truthful photos of the farming conditions on the packaging of meat and meat products.
