Dyed raw milk: Not without a fight

Posted: October 4th, 2007 - 11:17am by Brae Surgeoner

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution today reports that the proposal to start dyeing raw milk to discourage human consumption has stirred up enough opposition that the Georgia Department of Agriculture has decided to hold a public hearing on Nov. 2.

Pet dairy farmers and raw milk lovers are said to be fighting the dye proposal and seeking legislative help. Originally, the department planned to take written comments and issue new rules on Oct. 25.

The hearing starts at 9 a.m. Nov. 2 in Room 201 of the Agriculture Building, 19 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, Atlanta.

Gone are the days of taking field trips to farm and tasting a little bit of warm milk, straight from the udder.That's okay with me. Not only do I not like bacteria in my milk, I prefer it pasteurized and on the rocks, chilled almost to the point of frozen.Come to think of it, I'd rather have ice cream.
