Whole Foods Market has announced that a new line of certified kosher chicken and turkey is now available at select US locations.

The company said that the products are provided by Kosher Valley, a new certified kosher brand from Hain Celestial Group, and are certified by Rabbi Yechiel Babad and the Orthodox Union. Kosher Valley's antibiotic-free kosher line is one of the first of its kind in the United States.

According to the company, like all meat sold at Whole Foods Market, the new Kosher Valley products must meet the its animal welfare standards which require that all poultry offered in its stores comes from animals that are raised on a vegetarian diet with no antibiotics or added hormones.

Kosher Valley poultry products now available at Whole Foods Market include fresh and frozen whole young turkeys, ground turkey, fresh and frozen chicken, and tray packs of both turkey and chicken.

Theo Weening, global meat buyer for Whole Foods Market, said: Interest in kosher meat continues to grow. We're excited to be able to offer a variety of superior chicken and turkey products to our customers for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.
