antibiotic-free
No bacteria killers
Antibiotic-free describes food products, especially meat and poultry, raised without the use of antibiotics: antibiotic-free chicken, certified antibiotic-free.
The label responds to concerns about antibiotic resistance developing from routine agricultural use.
Sometimes the claim is meaningless—antibiotics were never standard for that product anyway.
