Fast food giant Subway announced this week that it is phasing out antibiotics from all of its meat products. According to a press release from the restaurant chain - the largest in the United States, with more than 27,000 locations - the phaseout will include chicken, turkey, beef and pork. They will serve “only protein from animals that have never received antibiotics.” Prior to this announcement, Subway previously had a plan in place to remove all antibiotics used in human medicine from its chicken products, which should be completed by the end of 2016.
