You're paying $1/L for this stuff, what are you expecting? It's like people saying 'OMG I can't believe the garbage of the animal goes into my spam'
I pay $1/L for boutique beer, and there's no slimy crap in that.
I agree with Paul the farmer:
You know, its really a labelling issue. The consumer has every right to know what they're purchasing."
Other than that and that I'd be happier if they kept the lactose out, don't see why it matters, sure it might be a byproduct of cheese making, but that does not mean it's bad for you or a 'waste' product you shouldn't eat.
I eat Vegemite and we all know what beverage manufacturing process that is a 'waste' product from.
Vegemite is made from used brewers' yeast extract, a by-product of beer manufacturing
Supermarket milk contains around 15% of "permeate", a green slimy waste product of cheese which is bleached and deodorised to make it look like milk.
This is perfectly legal and it never seems to get discussed.
linky
The whole point is that the average joe in the street doesn't know about this. For example if I bought "Fresh Beef Mince" from Woolies and had it analysed and found that it actually contained 20% ground up unsold smallgoods from the deli bar that they would otherwise have to toss out, I'm sure the local fair trading would have a thing or two to say.
Now mince with ground up smallgoods might be quite palatable and even desirable in some recipes - could make a cracking spag bog sauce - but they should declare it onthe label, and to do it secretly is unethical IMHO.
Mother's milk for some...Sensationalism.
You are ******* kidding.......
Bribie.... sorry, but you are full of shit on this one
Don't assume that everyone watches commercial television, let alone shit shows on commercial TV.if the average person doesnt know about it by now they must have theyre eyes shut and ears blocked. its been featured on the 630 shows at least twice in the past 12 months that i know of and talked about endlessly on am radio stations for days after each time.
