Local stores begin selling artificial hormone free milk

At least, this is consumer preference and not government intrusion.

But there is NO science that suggests that "hormone free" cows produce different milk.

Junk science triumphs again: "The US Food and Drug Administration found no difference in milk from cows that were given r-BST and those that were not.

But, that doesn't convince everyone. Including Meijer customer Charlette Muller, who was shopping for her four children. She says, “I had actually pushed water a little more with all the hormone stuff going on. But, now that they have hormone free milk we will definitely drink more milk. That's a guarantee.'"

Of what? Simple "feel-good" idiocy?
