Farming under attack: What do you think of the A&W Better Burger TV ad and Chipotle "Scarecrow" Video? Concerns?

If you have been watching TV lately you will be aware of the A&W Restaurant TV campaign that talks about their "Better Beef" burgers...No hormones or steroids.

 

In the USA, Chipotle Restaurants have been promoting a video and online game that negatively portrays modern food and agriculture production practices.

I will post the videos here in the case you have not had the chance to watch them.

Motherhood statements that warm the heart and stomach.  Who can argue with their intent?

I just wonder if they will be able to deliver on their commitment.

The cattle disaster will have a multi-year ripple effect.  I can imagine this would put pressure on cattle supply.
