Term Definition
Free Range

Meaningless on?beef, this USDA term basically applies only to poultry and means the egg-laying hens had outdoor access. Neither "free range" nor "cage free" labels are regulated, so look for the United Egg Producers ( www.unitedegg.org ) and American Humane Association logos, which indicate producers met strict standards requiring more cage space and better ventilation.
