Researchers at Consumer Reports found almost all grocery store chicken sold in the U.S. is contaminated with bacteria that can potentially make you sick, and that roughly half of all chicken has bacteria resistant to antibiotics.

Consumer Reports purchased 316 chicken breasts from grocery stores across the country. Researchers found little difference between brands or grocery stores, and organic chicken was no less likely to be contaminated.
