I AM SHOCKED!
Sorry for those who have missed my daily stuff posts. I was out of town this weekend attending a celebration of my grandmothers life. She passed away on October 26 at the age of 93. She was a wonderful woman and we had a wonderful weekend remembering her.
Well, on to the daily stuff, chalk this one up to it is better that we not know anything because we wouldn’t want to make our own informed decisions now, would we?
Over the weekend THIS article was posted in the New York Times. You see, it appears that we as the consumer are getting too much information on our milk products and probably a lot of other products and in Pennsylvania it is now illegal to give us too much information.
“THE Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture has decided that consumers are too dim to make their own shopping decisions. Agriculture officials in Ohio are contemplating a similar decision…..
Dennis Wolff, Pennsylvania’s agriculture secretary has announced a crackdown on absence labeling on milk. So it is illegal to tell you, the consumer, that there are not any rGBH hormones in your dairy products. It will be spreading to other labels as well.
So please read the article and see for yourself what is happening. Then, send a note to your elected officials. Is there really such a thing as too much information when it comes to making our own personal choices on what we put in our mouths?
