Wegmans Cruelty is a half hour documentary produced by a small investigative team from Compassionate Consumers. Organization members contacted Wegmans Food Markets to try to hold some meaningful dialog about the conditions at Wegmans Egg Farm, and were then misled and dismissed by Wegmans representatives. The team set out to capture actual footage inside the farm and then create a film based on their experience. The film features statements from Wegmans representatives, interviews with the investigators, and footage of what life and death is like inside of a battery cage facility. Egg companies produce about 98% of United States chicken egg products in battery cage facilities.
