Food Fraud

>In July of 2018, a class action lawsuit was filed against Kerrygold for label fraud because their cows are fed onions, corn and genetically modified grains instead of grass. The corporate entities that operate as Kerrygold were sued in California federal court. The 37-page complaint claimed the company misled consumers by representing that their butter products are made with “milk from grass-fed cows”; “made with milk from grass-fed cows not treated with rBST or other growth hormones”; “All Natural”; and “100% Pure and Natural.” The complaint argued that the cows from which Kerrygold products are derived are fed onions, corn and other grains, including grains that are genetically modified, and are thus not grass-fed as the Kerrygold's label claims.

>According to the lawsuit, Kerrygold feeds its cows genetically modified and other grains instead of non-grain and non-GMO alternatives as a “cost-saving measure.” Further, the suit says Kerrygold’s position of its butter as coming from grass-fed cows is a move that preys on consumers’ preferences for healthier, higher-quality foods.

>Last week, a judge dismissed the case because Kerrygold’s label doesn’t read “100% grass-fed.” The product packaging says that the milk used to make the Kerrygold products comes from “grass-fed cows,” not “only grass-fed” or “100% grass,” according to case documents. That means, if half of a cow ’s diet consists of GMO grains and onions, they can legally get away with deceiving the public by claiming their product comes from cows that are "grass-fed."

I’ve been fucking swindled, bros. I’ve been buying this shit for years.

It's kind of like when you see a product that says "made with organic ingredients," you know immediately that it's not 100% organic.

How do I sign up for this? My boomer mom pays extra for this butter all the time.

The suit was tossed by a judge already. The language was not deceptive enough to reach the point of fraud.

Hahahahaha! Rich dickheads BTFO! People here would talk shit about muh grass fed butter, muh bulletproof coffee, and you’re still consuming Walmart tier shit at 10x the price.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

I like tillamook more anyways

I thought it was well known they're only partially pastured? Better 50% or whatever than 0%.

This really bothers me. Consumers don’t stand a chance. I try so hard to eat clean and healthy, make sacrifices elsewhere in life to do it, and still they make it impossible. I just want to eat like my great grandparents did.

I just want pure, European style food that is grass fed, organic, and non GMO. You guys don’t appreciate how good you have it.

If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself. Time to buy a cow.

it is still pretty good butter compared to other shit

Copypasta from a jewish website btw

Same, I used to eat challenge butter but had to switch to sams club. Been kerrygold ever since. I want revenge!

>Taken from the Live Simply Blog, quoting Kerrygold: “Our ongoing discussions with the grain and dairy industry have established that of this approximately 10% grain/supplements, approximately 20 to 25% may be from GM sources. This means that approximately 3% of a cow’s total typical annual diet may be from GM sources…

>At present, the Irish Dairy Board cannot guarantee that grain supplements used by farmers will all be GM free…”

Based Cattle Thread.

Move to rural pensylvania and buy amish stuff

I knew they were trash.
They're quality of cheese is about the same as sargentos.
Their cheese is nothing compared to actually proper cheese you can get from whole foods or your local dairymades.

They cheese is very plastic tasting

Maybe your great grandparents shouldn't have been so naive to fight for banker edomite kikes and masons

>trusting the O'irish

I haven't bothered looking up the statute for how much grass feeding is required to legally label your dairy as grass-fed, mostly because I'm 99% sure it doesn't exist.

Food labelling in America is well and truly the most mutted part of this godforsaken country. You have to pay attention just to make sure a product isn't completely misrepresenting what it is, any claims about how natural, ethical, or healthy a product is are pretty much guaranteed to be lies. Almost every item in the supermarket is goychow, no matter how it's labelled.

So technically those other thing are basically grass

>because their cows are fed onions, corn and genetically modified grains instead of grass
>corn
it always comes back to the corn doesn't it

The Irish are mostly Catholic

so?

It's a cheap and shitty, high sugar grain. Look at the spics who live on rice, corn, and beans, all fat.
It's also not a natural food for cows and they dont digest it well.
Also, GMO common.
Lots of corn from the US because it's subsidized.

Corn is an energy dense starch that is heavily subsidized, making it ideal livestock feed, at least in terms of price. A cow's digestive tract is highly specialized for digesting and deriving nutrition from grass, so feeding them primarily corn and soi causes a slew of health issues for the cows and noticably impacts the quality of their products, but that's a problem for the goy consumers, not the manufacturers. If you don't like it, take it up with one of the other two megacorporate conglomerates responsible for the overwhelming majority of the American food supply.
