SF Animal Rights Activists Rally At In-N-Out
A group of animal rights activists rallied to demand greater clarity on the fast food chain's beef suppliers Saturday.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA — A group of animal rights activists rallied in and around the Fisherman's Wharf In-N-Out location on Saturday to demand greater clarity on the fast food chain's beef suppliers.
In-N-Out has historically bought beef from factory farms like Harris Ranch, one of the largest cattle farms in Central California. The fast-food chain's supplier information is unknown at this time, said organizers, but they call upon the company to publicize their suppliers and drop factory farms.
Animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere recently exposed Harris Ranch with hidden camera footage in March, which revealed some cattle "having their throats slit before they are stunned," among other inhumane practices, organizers said.

The demonstration comes as a part of their "No More Factory Farms" campaign, which asks for Governor Gavin Newsom to sign an executive order to immediately stop the expansion of factory farms--the first step in their movement to obliterate these companies in the state entirely.
