PITTSBURGH, PA — Chick-fil-A is making a major menu shift that will impact Pittsburgh-area patrons. Beginning this spring, the fast food chain will shift from no antibiotics ever chicken to no antibiotics important to human medicine.

No antibiotics ever means no antibiotics of any kind were used in raising the chicken. No antibiotics important to human medicine restricts the use of those antibiotics that are important to human medicine and commonly used to treat people. It allows use of animal antibiotics only if the animal and those around it were to become sick.

"Quality has always been our approach to food," the company stated in a news release.

"And because chicken is at the center of our menu, we serve only real, white breast meat with no added fillers, artificial preservatives, or steroids. Like other chicken in the United States, ours contains no added hormones."
