Wisconsin farming couple to Rachel Ray: Stop spreading pseudo-science about antibiotics in milk

|

On January 17, 2017, Rachel Ray, a TV talk show host trusted by millions of families around North America, hosted a registered dieticianKeri Glassman, in her ‘Healthy or Hype’ segment. Glassman launched into an attack on the safety of conventional milk, which she claimed was made by pumping cows up with antibiotics.
 
“Whole organic milk, ‘that’s what I have at home that’s what I’m going to put in my cart.”
Ray chimed in her disapproval. In fact, by law, all milk, organic and conventional, is tested to ensure it is antibiotic free and any milk testing positive is discarded.
 
As a kicker, Glassman recommended only drinking soy milk made from non-GMO soybeans–despite the fact that no mainstream scientist believes there are any nutritional or health differences.
 
A Wisconsin dairy couple, Sam and Brittany Olson, watching the show, was dismayed about the show’s lack of understanding about science. Here are their concerns–which remain unaddressed by Rachel Ray or her show producers–first expressed in a blog post on their Facebook page that resonated with farmers and scientists. ......Read their response to Rachel Ray, and think how often we see Hollywood types blathering about things in which they have no real knowledge or experience in life.  Whether it's pesticides, vaccinations, economics or any other subject in which they're completely unqualified on which to opine. 
 
We recently saw that great actress, Meryl Streep,  pontificating about President Trump.  Do you remember who was one of the most vocal in their junk science claims about Alar before Congress....Meryl Streep........can you imagine.....Congress called in Meryl Streep to testify about a chemical she knew nothing about except what the activists told her.  Dumb, dumber and dumbest!  Here's the real story on Alar
