Three months after McDonald's famously vowed to come up with a plan for phasing out sow confinement by its pork suppliers, the fast-food behemoth is making good on its promise.

McDonald's unveiled on Thursday a 10-year outline that includes a goal by 2017 of only buying pork from suppliers that "share its commitment to phase out gestation stalls."

The move follows similar pledges from Burger King and Safeway, both of which buy less pork than McDonald's.
