Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.
As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.

The notice says Jimmy's Pies Ltd is recalling specific batches of its Jimmy's brand mince pie and its mince and cheese pie because of the presence of an undeclared ingredient: monosodium glutamate (MSG).
The company had been contacted by a man's wife after he had an allergic reaction after eating a pie and had to be resuscitated after it caused breath issues about two weeks ago. "Everything is OK. He is OK."
The affected batches are all numbers up to 8250, and batches after 8253 are not affected by the recall.
The ministry statement says: "If you have consumed this product and have any concerns about your health, seek medical advice. If you are not allergic or intolerant to MSG, this recall does not affect you." Read more here
