Ben & Jerry's Adopts Cage-Free Egg Policy

Sept. 26 - KGO (KGO) -- The ice cream maker Ben & Jerry's plans to stop using eggs from caged hens.

The I-Team has done a series of reports on the conditions at chicken farms where hens are placed in tiny cramped cages.

Ben & Jerry's says it will phase in the use of cage-free eggs over the next four years and vowed all of its eggs will meet the standards of an animal welfare organization.

AOL implemented a similar ban earlier this year from all of its corporate dining rooms.
