Butterball Faces Boycott Over Resurfaced PETA Video on Turkey Abuse

A 2006 undercover video showing animal cruelty at a Butterball slaughterhouse has reignited outrage as Thanksgiving approaches.

PETA reposted an 18-year-old video showing alleged abuse of turkeys at a Butterball plant, including graphic mistreatment by workers.
The video, originally filmed in 2006, has gained traction on social media, with many calling for a boycott of Butterball products.
Butterball responded, stating the video predates their American Humane certification and current animal welfare practices.
Critics, including PETA, have challenged Butterball's humane certification, claiming it misleads consumers about the treatment of animals.
The controversy has sparked widespread online discussion, with viral reactions on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
