EBAA's Eight-Day Shopping Spree at Lunardi's: Let's pluck 'em dry!
Tony Lucia, the General Manager of Lunardi's Supermarket, proclaims:
"Lunardi's considers the proper treatment of animals to be of critical concern…we share the same concern and compassion for proper animal treatment as most Americans." So, why won't Lunardi's give an inch on its company egg policy?
"Lunardi's considers the proper treatment of animals to be of critical concern…we share the same concern and compassion for proper animal treatment as most Americans." So, why won't Lunardi's give an inch on its company egg policy?
Unlike its main competitors, Andronico's Market and Whole Foods Market, Lunardi's thinks cramming chickens in cages for their entire lives is "proper animal treatment". Sadly, Lunardi's is out of step with reality and the concerns of its own shoppers.
Bay Area consumers and store employees agree that Lunardi's must ban the sale of battery-cage eggs (online http://www.Cal-Eggs.com).

In a blink of an eye, Lunardi's Supermarket chain has reduced in size. But, egg-laying chickens are not squawking over this recent development. Read the news report from NBC-11:
"SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Dozens of people lent their signatures Tuesday to an effort to save a popular San Jose grocery store, NBC11's Daniel Garza reported. Shoppers said they began to hear by word of mouth about the closure just days before Lunardi's in the Evergreen Village Square would shut its doors at the end of the Tuesday business day."
