What does NAE stand for?
NAE stands for no antibiotics ever.
The label 'no antibiotics ever' on meat products means that the animals raised for that meat have never received any antibiotics during their lifetime. This label assures consumers that the meat is free from any antibiotics, including both therapeutic and preventative use. To ensure the credibility of 'no antibiotics ever' claims, there are certifications and regulations in place. Additionally, the USDA has guidelines and regulations that food producers must comply with to make 'no antibiotics ever' claims.

Why does Foster Farms choose NAE?
