An Amish farm in Pennsylvania has been stopped from selling contraband milk after a year-long federal government sting operation waste of tax dollars and manpower.
The Rainbow Acres Farm was found to have been smuggling banned unpasteurized milk to customers in Maryland. Raw milk drinkers claim that pasteurization eliminates good bacteria and changes the taste. But the Food and Drug Administration say unpasteurised milk can carry harmful bacteria such as salmonella, E.coli and listeria.
The FDA began to look into the farm, owned by Dan Allgyer, when an investigator used aliases to sign up to the farm's internet group and placed orders for raw milk to be delivered to Maryland.
Sales are illegal in 11 states and the District, with other states having varying restrictions on purchase or consumption.
Karin Edgett, a Washington DC resident, told the Washington Times: ‘I look at this as the FDA is in cahoots with the large milk producers.
‘I don't want the FDA and my tax dollars to go to shut down a farm that hasn't had any complaints against it. They're producing good food, and the consumers are extremely happy with it.
