NOTMILK-The State of Pus

[Guest guest]

After reading this, I am really glad I am vegan. My

son still loves to drink milk, but the more I tell

hime the more he wants to stop. After this, I'm sure

he will join me in drinking rice, soy and almond milk.

THE STATE OF PUS

 

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)

has published year 2000 data for the amount of

pus cells found in milk, broken down by state.

 

According to Duane Norman and R.H. Miller,

two USDA investigators, the average liter (about one

quart) of milk sold in America in 2000 contained

316 million pus cells.

 

What state holds title to the greatest amount of pus?

Look to the Sunshine State, Florida, home to the

Magic Kingdom. The average liter of milk in Florida

contained 504 million pus cells.

 

In Europe and Canada, regulators are aware that

the higher the pus cell count, the less healthy is the

milk.

Milk in Europe and Canada cannot legally be sold if

the level of pus cells per liter exceeds 400 million.

 

By applying European and Canadian safety standards,

USDA officials would also have to dump milk in the

following states:

 

Alabama (441 million pus cells per liter), Arkansas

(427 million pus cells per liter), Georgia (409

million

pus cells per liter), Kansas (428 million pus cells

per liter),

Louisiana (476 million pus cells per liter),

Mississippi (448

million pus cells per liter), South Dakota (409

million

pus cells per liter), and Tennessee (420 million pus

cells per

liter). Puerto Rico's average liter of milk contained

475

million pus cells. (I like to be in America, ok by me

in

America, everything free in America, less pus in milk

in America!)

 

Which states enjoy the " healthiest milk? "

 

First place is awarded to Rhode Island. Milk from

Rhode Island's cows averages out to only 218 million

pus cells per liter. Second place goes to New Mexico

at 255 million pus cells per liter, and Montana is a

close third at 257 million pus cells per liter.

 

Honorable mention to those additional states with pus

cell counts under 300 million per liter:

 

California, Colorodo, Michigan, Oregon, Texas,

Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
