Wal-Mart's Milk is Going Hormone Free

According to a report last week, Wal-Mart is going to discontinue using cows that are treated with artificial growth hormones to supply the milk for their private label Great Value. They are making the change due to customer demand.

I personally don't shop at Wal-Mart. There isn't one particularly convenient to me, and the few times I've been in one, it's been dirty and cluttered. But I know that there are many, many people who do shop in Wal-Mart, and it's good to know that those who buy their milk there won't be adding unnecessary growth hormones to their family's diet.  Now, if they could promise to take the added antibiotics out of the milk, too, that would be fantastic.
