<<<Does anyone remember the Thanksgiving 20 years ago that few Americans
had turkey because it was revealed that the industrial feed had been
heavily contaminated with pesticide due to a spill?  The turkeys had
made it all the way to market before someone revealed the problem.

And what about the cows who grazed next to highways and freeways before
unleaded fuel became the standard? What was the level of lead in their
milk?>>>

Most toxins, like dioxin and PCB is soluted in fat. In formula the fat of the
cow's milk is replaced by vegetable fat (oil), because of this reason. Eg peanut
oil (until one found out about the allergic problems caused by peanuts), mais oil
and soy oil.
