The fucking fuck. Are we supposed to import our god damn food now so it's safe to eat?
-
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

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.

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.

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.

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.
-
That’ll be $276.43, and your card is automatically charged.
Thank you, Come again!
No returns.

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.
