What is the difference between "M-Classic - Pouletschnitzel" and "Optigal Pouletschnitzel 2 pieces"? The product information for both says "Optigal, particularly animal-friendly stables". So what is the difference?
Hello Midors, thank you for your question. We will be happy to look into it. Could you perhaps send us a picture of both products to illustrate this? Kind regards, your M-Infoline team
Et voila.
Hello Midors, thank you for sending the photos. After checking your request, we have discovered that there is an error in the Migipedia product information (production process) for "M-Classic Pouletschnitzel" - the information where "Optigal" is mentioned is incorrect. We will have this incorrect information removed as soon as possible. We apologize for the misunderstanding! Thank you very much for your attention and help in eliminating such discrepancies. Best regards, your M-Infoline team
What is the production process for M-Classic chicken schnitzel? Can it contain antibiotics etc?
Hello Midors, Swiss products are subject to strict animal welfare and feed regulations. In Switzerland, the use of antibiotics in animal husbandry is strictly regulated. Antibiotics may only be used on sick animals and under veterinary supervision. Preventive use is prohibited. There are also waiting periods before an animal is slaughtered to ensure that there are no antibiotic residues in the meat. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

I regularly eat Optigal chicken breast from Migros and am always happy with it. My question: Are antibiotics used in the rearing and keeping of the chicken? If so, is any of it still present after preparation?
Hello DrPollo, thank you for your question. Antibiotics are used in the event of illness (as in human medicine) - under prescription from a veterinarian. There are clear withdrawal periods from when to when antibiotics may be used. The aim of these withdrawal periods is to ensure that the antibiotic substances are broken down by the time the animal is slaughtered. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

I have to say something here - the Optigal chicken products are just so much tougher! The chicken breasts from the Coop are much more tender, I don't know why. Several people confirm my experience. Is there a reason for this?
Hello Micharius
Like Migros, our competitor has different types of chicken schnitzel on sale. Here we differentiate between organic, Swiss poultry and imported chicken schnitzel. Which label and which quality did you compare?
The perception of qualities or sensations such as tough or tender depends on several components. The breed of the chicken plays a role here. The chosen breed is also dependent on the fattening period of a chicken - a longer fattening period can have an influence on the tenderness of chicken meat. Feeding can also generate possible variations in quality. Another possible component is the cooking preparation of meat and chicken.
The Optigal brand stands for Swiss poultry. Our customers who buy fresh poultry meat want chicken meat that is pure in taste and juicy. Swiss origin, animal welfare and transparent traceability back to the farm are important customer requirements that we communicate via the brand and packaging.
