Reason is the udder being not far away from the anus so literally shit happens. But there are procedures in the chain that reduce the risk. The milk is pasteurised and homogenised for this reason.
And this is exactly why i recommend raw milk to all my MAGA friends, hoping they will develop a natural resistance against being fed shit.
They are the assholes, they are the ones providing the shit.
I like the way you think sir.
How much is normally in there? And how?
The FDA has rules for how much rodent shit or insect legs can be in your food. Realistically, there’s going to be some no matter what food producers do.
Here’s some of the rules for basically everything but dairy. Although you might not want to read them.
Dairy is so complicated that they have a searchable database. I found a couple of numbers for bacteria counts, but it seems to be an “it varies.”
A not-insignificant amount.
Cows will shit in the milking shed with the same frequency as they will shit anywhere else they stand. Probably a higher freqency because they are often agitated by the loud noises, and hairless apes fondling them.
The machines used to milk them are very simple pneumatic massagers hooked up to a vacuum hose. If those machines fall off, or get kicked off by an agitated cow, they will suck up whatever else they come in contact with until someone notices and comes to pick them up again or shut them off.
It is an absolutely regular occurence that cow shit gets sucked up into the lines and pumped into the milk vat. Filter socks(think a coffee filter, but the size of a poster-tube) are installed in the line before the milk vat to reduce the amount of solids that make it through, but there is always some amount of liquefied cow shit ending up in the milk.
I stopped drinking milk the day I learned that the FDA has a limit on the amount of puss from a burst udder blister, and it’s not 0%.
Just the usual amount. I don't think we want to know.
About 20%
Don't worry, the Trump regime will get rid of the FDA, and recalls like this won't bother you ever again.
Don't worry, once DOGE is done cutting government agencies, you won't hear anything about how much shit is in your butter.
Ive already been on edge for the past 30 years with how American products aren't allowed directly in other countries because the EU bans certain chemicals.
And post-DOGE, I'm absolutely mortified.
But Kinder eggs are going too far for Americans, it seems.
Hey due to mountain dew I've consumed crazy amounts of bromine! That's why it was banned in the EU. No longer contains it though which is nice
Fecal recall
Here's a version with better cropping:
My wife and I make our own fecal matter at home. Healthier and tastes better
If you don't have the time for homemade, store bought is fine.
Good idea, probably saves a lot of money too! Any tips or tricks for beginners?
Plastic bags work fine. Preferably zip lock baggies. ALSO keep them in the freezer. One time we wound up with jenkem on Accident and you don't want jenkem. It's illegal and believe me, Nobody can do That Much jenkem.
Upvoted for literal Lemmy Shitpost
Ok but why you crop it that way?
Why doesn't it have more jpeg? That's the real question here.
(The answer is: I was lazy and just took the image as I found it somewhere else.)
Now this is shitposting
Another reason to go vegan:
Your butter won't have shit in it!
There is no vegan butter that holds a candle to real butter though. And there are also feces in flour and most other foodstuffs. Can't reliably pest proof food stores and fields without exterminating all life. Just cause it sounds disgusting doesn't mean it is.
Good point
You mean oil?
Fat in general
With the levels of deregulation in the US, everything will eventually contain shit.
Fecal what? Fecal mama? Fecal manners? Fecal Madonna?
The brand is "Cabot Creamery".
Hopefully it has nothing to do with their chip supply chain... I do love that smoked cheddar chip...
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S NOT BUTTER
Good choice. I prefer my butter only lightly fecal, and unsalted
We always buy unfecaled butter then add feces depending on the recipe, taste.
Elevated
...unquote.
Can’t spell butter without butt.
The real meaning of butter!
Hmm, that butter tastes a little bit more shit than usual.
Total Recall (1990)
What should we have expected, "butt" is right in the name.
What a shit butter.
Idk that’s kinda shitty of them
Yeah, as in "elevated amount of rat hair", meaning that more than the allowed 3 rat hairs per pound.
Simple.
What you wanna do is it's closer to 1 rat hair per pound too often, add some yourself so it keeps rising the 3/lb limit, otherwise next year they'll change the quota!
So this is what happened after the dude couldn't hold his shit for 3 days. He should have just called in sick!
Thanks for the link. My first question was, "What brand, what item?"
Per the FDA, the recalled item is Cabot Creamery Extra Creamy Premium Butter, Sea Salted. The butter, which is sold in 8-ounce packages, contains two sticks of butter in a cardboard box.
Thank you. The picture they chose to use is of a butter that we actually buy and had me a bit worried for a moment and you saved me a frantic internet search.
