Starbucks Switches To Hormone-Free Milk

Starbucks Switches To Hormone-Free Milk!

January 19th, 2008 | by the health blogger |

For all of you Starbucks lovers out there: Starbucks has finally started to implement plans to serve ONLY milk produced by cows free of the artificial hormone known as rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone) - see my article on Milk here.

Unfortunately though, they shall stop serving organic milk as a result of the new changes. The reason they were serving organic originally was due to the fact that organic milk does not contain bovine growth hormone, but now normal milk is available from cows which have not been treated with this hormone. They can’t always get it right can they?

They should’ve just stayed with the organic milk, but hey, when we’re talking about money things coincidentally change and sometimes people forget all about ethical issues.

At least they’ve made an effort I guess!
