They want to go back to how it was in the 1800s

The fucking fuck. Are we supposed to import our god damn food now so it’s safe to eat?
That’ll be $276.43, and your card is automatically charged.
Thank you, Come again!
No returns.
Time to get on the bandwagon of ultra-pasteurized milk or re-boil your milk at home
“Ultra pasteurized” are just words on a carton unless there’s someone verifying it.
Source?
Here’s a Cornell University article
https://cals.cornell.edu/sites/default/files/2023-04/pasteurization-fact-sheet-v1.pdf
Source: People can print whatever they like on a carton. It’s testers and regulators that recognize and punish them for making false claims.
They’re not disputing ultra pasteurization, but due to the new lack of control implementation, it doesn’t necessarily have to happen making it no different than the rush associated with regular milk.
I have terrible news for you. At least in my part of America, the only milk you can buy is ultra high pasteurized.
Of course, that’s what they’ve been doing until now. Let’s see what happens without the FDA on it.
Dipshits like RFK jr want to experiment on everyone and make them “healthy again” by giving everyone raw milk.
I want regular pasteurized milk so I can make clotted cream. But I’d rather have ultra high pasteurized and not have to worry about shit like that.
But now it’s not just milk and the legally allowed amount of blood, pus, urine, dirt, fecal matter, cleaning agents, and the things the
FDAUSDA found and did nothing about.
Now it’s an unambiguous statement that unknown quantities of unknown substances in your food will not trigger enforcement actions! (Regardless of the regulating body)That article cites USDA, not FDA
Oh, you’re right - I recalled the article and just grabbed the first one that fit when I skimmed it.
I think my point that this is a clear message that the regulators are unable to regulate right now is still valid, but I will update my previous comment for clarity.
In Florida up to 30% of the volume of milk can be pus (there’s lots of puss coming out of these abused girl’s tits due to infections on wounds caused by the machines), so enjoy drinking your boiled pus drink
Gonna need some sauce on that chief.

This tried to limit it to “400,000 [pus] cells per milliliter” but it looks like it didn’t pass.
Also found this fun guide (adapted from FDA guidelines) telling labs how to count the pus cells. Particularly alarming is that they tell the labs to err on the side of ignoring pus cells “If in Doubt, Do Not Count Questionable Cells!”

Yes, and pay the import tariff. I’m sure you can afford it since taxes are so low.
Nah, you dont need to steal milk from babies in another country either, weirdo. Just stop buying milk.
This isn’t the only thing they’re stopping testing on.
Yay chunky bacteria laden milk here we come. Upton Sinclair eat your heart out.
Yes. Upton Sinclair reference. My man!
bovine tb, yum.
Lactose intolerance finally pays off
mmmmm…Campylobacter
Oh I’m sure this will end well…
Meanwhile us vegans are having our schadenfreude tickled.
Enjoy your E. coli tainted lettuce.
Yeah, indeed. Even when we try to avoid a lot of the toxic output of the SAD, we get the “benefit” of the lack of regulation meaning that cow shit ends up on food.
And that was BEFORE the asshats like donnie and his dogebags got their hands on things.
If we outlaw animal abuse, then cow populations would drop from trillions to thousands.
And then there would be no more issues with cow shit on our veggies.
Aww. I love you too!
Guess it’s time to stop consuming milk entirely, good job!
So much “efficiency”.
Once again, when the brainless howler monkeys like Failin’ Palin were talking about “death panels”, it was projection. ALWAYS projection.
I’m glad I never really got into dairy. Occasionally I’ll eat cheese. And 2ce a year I’ll eat ice cream.
Where’s Al Capone when you need him?
The article doesn’t make this clear but “proficiency testing” is a “testing the testers” activity that ensures that labs’ procedures are working. So milk testing done by labs will still be done but those labs won’t be tested until this is resolved. Yes, the activity being stopped is important but a short stall shouldn’t immediately accept food safety.
Thank you for being a voice of reason so I don’t have to go insane today.
How long until I should go insane though? A month? Two weeks?
Now corporations can slide a few bucks to food safety testing labs and get past all these pesky regulations
And testing companies can reduce prices and take on many more customers if they don’t actually test anything.
And when people are upset about that system the labs can go and pay the big4 to be their testers and rubber stamp everything they do because the labs are now paying the salary of the people who are there to stop them.
From working with lab equipment, you’d be surprised how quickly results turn to unreliable slop if not consistently calibrated. Is that what you’re saying is being skipped?
The article really didn’t do a good job of explaining. Would this be the equivalent of CAPP inspections where one lab will audit another?
No, it’s making sure people still know how to do their jobs that will be paused. If you work in a lab you have to do regular periodic training and then be tested on your ability to execute to those standards. Those tests of the lab workers are being paused until they’re in the new location. This is actually pretty common.
Gotcha, thanks for the explanation
That kind of expense is meant to ensure standardized practices, correct?
Trump thinks measure once cut once is more efficient.
To some extent, but more so to ensure people actually absorbed the training.
So if you train people on shitty practices, then they can pass their competency tests doing shitty things really well!
The actual training (typically called SOPs - standard operating procedures / policies or some such thing) quality is generally what makes a bigger difference. Those are typically reviewed annually or on some timeline based on risk and volatility.
They still allow 30% pus (by volume) in the milk sold in my State. Thats the status quo you think is OK?
throw the fucking Russian cunts out ffs!
Even if you were going to do this, why would you tell everyone you’re doing it?
Man it really sucks living in this shithole country run by a pack of morons.
I hope my state secedes. The sooner blue states cut themselves loose, the better.
Can’t wait to find out we’re putting formaldehyde in our milk again.
god i can’t wait to move to canada or ireland
