9 June 2005 - half past ten o'clock am I've been concerned about the use of the bovine growth hormone RBHT in dairy products. Around here, groups specializing in humane treatment of livestock and consumers' rights have seen to it that local milk producers like Clover and Berkeley Farms have emblazoned their labels with the proclamation "No RBHT!" However, one doesn't see this on packages of cheese, yogurt, or pudding, although milk is their main ingredient. I visited Kraft's website, and performed a search for the hormone, and finding nothing have been obliged to conclude due to the fact that the majority of corporations are using it rather than not, that they have not ceased in that practice. Furthermore, I was appalled to discover the sheer amount of brands under Kraft's control. I'm boycotting them myself, just because I don't feel like being poisoned with bovine hormones, the pus which is secreted into the milk caused by the infections that the hormone causes in the cows, and the antibiotics which are given to the cows to combat the infections caused by the hormone. That, and they've got enough money without receiving any of mine. Anway, if you're concerned about your health, or the health of the creatures that we share our world with, take a look at this list of products and see if there are locally produced alternatives: Beverages
