Why is that? Because, this year's milkcontains much less pus than last year's milk, but howcan the dairy industry admit to the public that milkcontains any pus at all? The very thought of drinkingpus is disgusting, so this is one truth in their favorthat the dairy industry must bury.If I offered you a glass of water to drink and informedyou that it contained 100 pus cells, would you drink it?How about 100 million pus cells?Latest USDA data reveal that the average number of pus cellsper liter of milk has declined dramatically from 319 millionto only 295 million. Is that great news, or what?On April 27, 2004, I predicted this would happen if Monsanto'sgenetically engineered bovine growth hormone use ended. Thathormone stresses cows and creates more pus in milk. Imagininga time in which Monsanto's rbGH would no longer be used, I wrote:notmilk/message/1619"Cows will be less stressed as their udders shrink becausethey are no longer injected with high octane hormone fuel.The pus cell rates will mysteriously decrease. Farmers willbe given credit for producing safer and cleaner milk."That is exactly what has happened. As a result of my Citizen'sPetitions with FDA and my Freedom of Information Act Requests,FDA closed Monsanto's European production facility for a goodpart of 2004 and production and distribution of the geneticallyengineered bovine growth hormone was extremely limited. Farmersran out of supplies and had to produce milk without using thatdangerous dairy management tool.The result? Pus cell counts have fallen to the lowest levelssince 1994, the year in which rbGH was first approved by FDA.The September 25, 2005 issue of Hoard's Dairyman (The NationalDairy Farmer's Magazine) reveals on page 631:"Florida, despite its hurricanes, saw the greatest drop lastyear, (from 633 million to 475 million."Despite its hurricanes? What poorly written crap. Hurricaneshad nothing to do with pus cell levels in milk, and now thatMonsanto is again in full production, pus cell rates will increasenext year. It's all about stressing the animals so that theirudders become infected with mastitis. To consume cow's milk isto drink pus and bacteria-filled body fluids from diseased animals.
