Manufacturer: “As much as legally allowed.”

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.”

Sadly you can't make things 100% clean even tho it's disgusting but I think there is some limit of rat poop in foods and other things. Don't know exactly how much tho. Just what I heard don't quote me on this.

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%.

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.

Just the usual amount. I don't think we want to know.

About 20%

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.

They are the assholes, they are the ones providing the shit.

I like the way you think sir.

If you don't have the time for homemade, store bought is fine.

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.)

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.

We always buy unfecaled butter then add feces depending on the recipe, taste.

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.

The cruelty improves the flavor. We should start waterboarding our vegetables to clean the manure off and give them that inhumane zing.
