Consumers are standing up for public health by speaking out against the overuse of antibiotics in factory farming and as a result, the industry is changing. 

The following fast-casual restaurants have taken action to transition away from serving meat raised with antibiotics. By supporting restaurants with strong antibiotic free policies, we can help ensure that we preserve antibiotics for generations to come.

So, the next time you’re grabbing a quick bite, please consider supporting the following chains, listed below both by name and the type of antibiotic-free meat they offer.

Now, we’re calling on Subway to join its peers in committing to antibiotic-free meat–but we can’t succeed without you.
