Recently in his Animal and Dairy Sciences blog, Terry Etherton commented on the growing problem related to the pricing of dairy products marketed as â€œrbST-freeâ€ or â€œorganicâ€.Â  His own observations, he stated, were backed up by recent American Farm Bureau Federation Marketbasket Surveys which showed that conventional dairy products are sold at much lower [...]]]></description>

Those of you who regularly read my work know that I believe in conventional milk.Â  It is perfectly safe, perfectly nutritious, and perfectly refreshing.Â  So what is with this push from some groups to make raw milk sales in supermarkets legal?Â  For those of you who donâ€™t know what raw milk is, let me [...]]]></description>

Last week, I saw some signs that the American public is finally waking up to the gargantuan fraud that has been foisted on them. Â Regular readers know I am talking about the alleged benefits of organic food,Â particularly organic milk.

Many mainstream news sources and blogs continue to erroneously report that the marketing of milk from rbST-treated cows has been banned in many nations.Â  This is simply not true and further evidence of the shoddy research that many reporters conduct when writing.Â  Those who are against GM foods prefer language such as â€œbannedâ€ because [...]]]></description>

The research facts and scientific evidence was already clear; but a new puberty study from the University of Michigan C.S.

The following are examples from specific news organization where consumers were grossly misinformed that the artificial hormone rbST alters milk in some way.

Thus, we are including specific contact information above [...]]]></description>
