Raw chicken was purchased from supermarkets, butcher shops, specialty stores, and food distributors in the greater New York City area. A variety of widely available brands were procured in four categories: conventional, kosher, organic and RWA. Within each category of chicken purchased, we collected at least four samples of each brand. Some samples included more than one category (e.g., kosher and organic). Five collections occurred resulting in 213 total samples.
