June 25, 2008 - PRLog -- CANOGA PARK, CA. – Eggology, the leader in the all-natural egg whites industry, has
become the only liquid egg brand to be Certified Humane endorsed by The Humane Society of the United States, it was announced today by company founder Brad Halpern.  
The first company to offer 100% organic and cage-free egg whites, Eggology has
maintained a close association with The Humane Society since being founded in the mid-
90’s.  

Receiving the prestigious Certified Humane designation affirms that Eggology meets the
stringent Animal Care Standards endorsed by The Humane Society’s.  These include
providing animals a nutritious diet without antibiotics or hormones, as well as raising them
with shelters, resting areas, sufficient space and the ability to engage in natural behaviors
(please find below additional information about the non-cruelty standards Eggology
maintains).

Certified Humane hens have over 3 times the space that hens have in battery cage factory
farms.  The Certified Humane logo shown above right will be featured immediately on the
www.Eggology.com website and will begin appearing on the company’s line of products over
the weeks ahead.

Eggology has also become a staunch supporter of The Humane Society’s efforts to pass a
precedent-setting California ballot in November eliminating chicken cages in the state.  
“You don't need to be a scientist to know that confining a bird to a space in which it can
barely move is cruel and inhumane," said Paul Shapiro, Director of The Humane Society's
factory farming campaign.
Added Eggology founder Brad Halpern, “We are truly honored to receive this prestigious
certification since the welfare of chickens and all animals has always been of tremendous
importance to me personally and to Eggology corporately.  I look forward to working closely
with the great people at The Humane Society on this important November ballot and to
doing everything humanly – and humanely – possible to eliminate the caging of chickens in
California.”
