We're cracking open the "chicken industry" egg and breaking down why it's vital to care about the chickens we're eating.
Host John Robert Sutton speaks with Matthew Wadiak (Co-founder and Former COO of Blue Apron, Former Founder/CEO of Cooks Venture, and Board Member at Goodwill International) to help us better understand one the most eaten protein in the world, chicken, and how to make better decisions around its consumption.
