Guest guest Posted May 5, 2001 Report Share Posted May 5, 2001 Hi, Dh looked for the back issue containing the article describing the milk-based spray to kill e.coli on beef that has been developed, but it must have gotten thrown out. All he can be sure of is it came out prior to April 21, 2001. He thinks it was definitely in April, though. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2001 Report Share Posted May 6, 2001 I really don't think that they will be able to spray all the meat with the milk based spray. Milk is one of the highest allergens and it would affect a ton of people. MA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't buy cookies, crackers or breads in my area because they *all* either contain milk-derived ingredients or were processed on dairy equipment, and two of my sons react to the slightest contamination of milk (not just casein, btw). A lot of processed meats have milk-derived ingredients. The nuts I can purchase locally are all labeled OUD. Milk is in virtually *everything* already. Why would they stop now? I truly hope they don't use this, too, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. Lis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 7, 2001 Report Share Posted May 7, 2001 It just seems so strange to me that they would spray all of the meat. I'm sure there will be a big stink about it because so many people are allergic to milk or lactose. Pretty soon we won't be able to eat anything but the leaves on the trees.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2001 Report Share Posted May 7, 2001 Are you kidding?! Do you have any idea what they spray on those leaves? :-) .... but maybe we could eat the roots.

Just heard a bit on the radio. There is some major work going on in the US into developing containers, specifically fast food container, made from a combination of wheat straw and wheat starch. They are hoping to replace the current high cost paper boxes and cartons with cheaper and more biodegradable technology...which would mean the few options celiacs and GFCF'ers have for fast food would be taken away...ain't technology wonderful... ---------------------------------------------- Jay Bigam Marketing and Information Technology Manager Kinnikinnick Foods Inc. www.kinnikinnick.com Toll Free: 1- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2001 Report Share Posted May 7, 2001 Alright already. I won't eat anything. When the heck is there going to be something safe that doesn't have anything sprayed on it. I wasn't going to write the comment about eating the leaves either cuz I knew someone was going to write what you did. Anyways it was funny. It'll teach me a lesson for next time.
