"In a petition filed with the FDA, the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA) and the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) seek to change the definition of “milk” so that chemical sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose can be used as optional ingredients not listed on the product label."

My favorite part is the request to change the definition of "milk."

Or just not drink milk at all.

I had always been impressed by the fact that there are a surprising number of individuals who never use their minds if they can avoid it, and an equal number who do use their minds, but in an amazingly stupid way. - Carl Jung, Man and His Symbols

True.

Luckily I have the option (without having to jump through 100 hoops) in the area I am in to drink raw milk if I choose to do so.
