- Portland, Maine -
It's not too difficult for a Mainer to remember the days when Oakhurst proudly placed a natural and healthy Farmer's Pledge : No Artificial Growth Hormones Used, on their dairy products.
Then Monsanto sued Oakhurst about seven and a half years ago, making the most ridiculous, but with their reputation, notorious proclamation that such a statement could potentially mislead consumers to believe that dairy products with growth hormones have an adverse affect.
Fortunately for Oakhurst and their loyal followers, the dairy company is allowed to keep the Farmer's Pledge with an obligatory disclaimer - The FDA States: No significance difference in milk from cows treated with growth hormones.
Oh, Monsanto. Grow up. You're like the insecure and ugly super geek from high school, threatened by the naturally talented and gifted athlete. Leave bright and enterprising farmers alone!
