Dear Boomer Babes and Real Cougars,
I mourn for the children and families in China. How can a company knowingly put harmful ingredients in milk to save money? There have been more than 54,000 children that have become ill because melamine was added by suppliers. They did this to disguise the protein levels of watered down cow's milk causing kidney stones and other fatal complications.
As mothers and grandmothers, we must be vigilant when it comes to our children. We must demand that companies be honest and those that aren't must be exposed and prosecuted. Today with food costs accelerating, all families are trying to cut costs, but at a high price to our children and to ourselves. Costco will soon be carrying products produced by Naturally Iowa, Inc.
This company produces organic milk, drinkable yogurt and frozen yogurt. They have successfully found a process to sustain important probiotics, such as Lactobacillus and Acidophilus (LA) and Bificobacterium and have found a way to keep these probiotics active for up to 60 days giving you and your children a healthier product.
Recently, they bought a company that produces biodegradible, environmentally friendly and sustainable bottles and packaging made from corn. What is so significant about this is that it will reduce the need for fossil fuels and reduce CO2 in the atmosphere. We need to speak out and demand more companies do the same by voting with our dollars in the stores.
