sterilized for 112-118°C for at least 60 minutes (dependant on flavor
and can size). There are no preservatives used in the process.

- Also meets EU and Canadian requirements.
- We make it in our factory in Thailand. The factory meets all
international standards and is regularly inspected by both government
and independent auditors.
- Thailand has a very large and advanced food processing industry.
Thailand is one of the largest exporters of chicken meat in the world.
We only use export-grade premium chicken meat from large, reputable
chicken processers in Thailand. The chicken farms and production
facilities adhere to the strictest safety standards and are also
regularly inspected and audited.
Do you use caged or battery hens?
- Our chickens are barn raised in large buildings or barns
where they have free access to food, water, and sunlight, They are free
to roam within the barn. This is very similar to standard industry
practice both in Australia and NZ.
There is a strong public perception that growth hormones are widely used
in the poultry industry. This, however, is false and hormones have not
been used anywhere in the poultry industry for many decades.
What about bird flu?
- Bird flu is carried by wild fowl. Our chickens are barn
raised and are, therefore, not able to mix with wild fowl. The flock is
tested daily under supervision of the Department of Livestock
Development (DLD).
- "The H5N1 virus is sensitive to heat.
Normal temperatures used for cooking (70 °C in all parts of the food)
will kill the virus… Avian influenza is not transmitted through cooked
food. To date, no evidence indicates that anyone has become infected
following the consumption of properly cooked poultry or poultry
products, even when these foods were contaminated with the H5N1 virus."
(World Health Organisation)
The pink colour in safely cooked chicken may be due to the hemoglobin
in tissues which can form a heat stable colour. Smoking or grilling may
also cause this reaction
