More debate on rBGH

Posted by Nathalie Jordi, January 23, 2007

Remember our post on Starbucks getting rid of milk from cows treated with rBGH in half its stores?

Apparently, rBGH does not show up in milk--the fluid itself is rBGH free. However, cows given rBGH are at a much higher risk of mastitis, an udder infection usually treated with antibiotics, which do come through the milk.

See the NRN Food Service Blog for a fleshing out of the semantics.
