I have a friend who is suspicious of free-range poultry on the grounds that: "You never know where they've been." She is happier with the thought of the cosy, if crowded, shed the poultry used to live in and the freezer where they were laid to rest.

My friend can tuck in with more confidence after the news that free-range turkeys may not be all that free and the range not very large. To qualify for basic free-range status the farmer has to allow merely the opportunity for the turkey to access the outdoors. Those outdoors may even be a concrete-covered yard.
