Government always knows best. That is why they called for low fat foods. Low fat foods taste like cardboard, so they added high fructose corn syrup. And obesity, diabetes and heart disease skyrocketed.

Try to buy raw milk.

Another out-of-control, bureaucratic DC agency.

its made a hash of its labeling law requirements, as this article points out.

For example, if you raise bees, and put 100% all natural bee honey in a jar, FDA demands it have nutritional info.

As part of this upcoming rule, if a serving size of honey is, say, 20 grams, you have to declare under their required “added sugars” category: 20 grams. People think your honey therefore has added sugar. The FDA has allowed no way out of this either

He won't have standing. As a manufacture of imitation products, he is no longer a dairy farmer.

The answer is simple - skim milk has the fat removed. Fortified Skim Milk is Skim milk with the nutrients added.

The FDA just doesn’t want to fix a prior mistake.

Just like dairymen around here sued to be able to label bovine growth hormone free milk as such. I mean a person is completely within their rights to consider such a distinction nuts, but no way should any government entity be able to say you CAN’T label anything in any manner that is accurate.

and then there’s this...

“What’s interesting here is that the FDA’s commitment to promoting ostensibly more nutritious milk is totally reasonable.”


The government track record about food recommendations has been atrocious. So it’s NEVER reasonable to have it dictate what is nutritious and what is not.

The other skim milks should be labeled “enriched skim milk” since nutrients have been added.

Thank God, the FDA is here to protect us. We idiots, who don’t work for the government, cannot select the most nutritious milk for our needs.

“”Pure, all-natural skim milk is not an ‘imitation’ of anything,””

Goes without saying, doesn’t it? Will the government NEVER run out of fools to write regulations? Where DO these people come from?
