The dairy industry will not get anything. Just a guess.

Seems to me that this is something the the BIG GLOBAL DAIRY industry would favor, while small farmers would oppose.
Whoever BIG DAIRY is (Archer-Daniels???) would want to suck all the moisture out of milk so they could more cheaply ship it whereever they want, then just add water and still call it "milk" so they could undercut the local farmers. Same thing with the dang casein. The globalists would want to make bulk casein whereever it was cheapest, and simply mix it with whatever other chemicals (in different proportions for different types of cheese) as the need arises, rather than just making the cheese outright.

I still don't know if I have this figured out right, so correct me if I'm wrong. I'm trying to come down on the side of the small dairy farmer and small independent dairies in hopes that is where I'll continue to get the REAL thing.

Ok, since you insist on taking this bill seriously. Jeffords was a big advocate of the dairy compacts. If it's dairy and he is for it (excuse me while I barf) then it is a good bill for the dairy industry. It has been read twice, one more and it gets a vote. I just don't think with his name on the bill that it will pass. Punishment for defection.

If it says processed cheese food, it is nasty. If it is individually wrapped, it is nasty. This is the rule for American cheese. I have bought cheese that refuses to melt. And NEVER buy individually wrapped cheddar.
