    B-1168835 Dear Senator Nelson: Reference is made to your letter dated April 16, 1970, in which you requested that we invest‘igate whether Monterey cheese imported from New Zealand under the quota category of "Other cheese" is being used in place of cheddar cheese in the manufacture of American-type processed cheese or cheese foods. You stated that the standards of identrty of the Food__-- and - Drug- -,,..._Administration do not authorize the use of Monterey cheese for manufacturing processed American cheese or processed American cheese foods. You suggested that we make a spot check of-a limited number of shipments imported from New Zealand to determine whether Government reg- ulations are being violated.

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • Storage Temperatures Necessary to Maintain Cheese Safety
    Storage Temperatures Necessary to Maintain Cheese Safety JAY RUSSELL BISHOP and MARIANNE SMUKOWSKI* Wisconsin Center for Dairy Research, University of Wisconsin 1605 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706-1565, USA SUMMARY Available information on bacterial pathogen growth, stasis, and death in cheeses was reviewed and evaluated to determine storage temperatures necessary to maintain product safety. In view of the variety and large volume of cheeses consumed throughout the world, the incidence of foodborne outbreaks associated with cheeses is extremely low. Research revealed that the inherent characteristics of most cheeses create a hostile environment for bacterial pathogens, especially at elevated ripening and storage temperatures. Therefore, it is recommended that the following cheeses, manufactured in the United States with pasteurized or heat treated (> 63°C for >16 seconds) milk, should be exempt from refrigeration requirements during ripening, storage, shipping, and display: Asiago (medium and old), Cheddar, Colby, Feta, Monterey Jack, Muenster, Parmesan, Pasteurized process, Provolone, Romano, and Swiss/Emmentaler. It must be stressed that the manufacture of these cheeses must be done under the proper conditions of Good Hygiene Practices, Good Manufacturing Practices, and HACCP principles, and according to CFR requirements. In addition, the natural cheeses must include active cultures, and the storage and display temperatures must not exceed 30°C. INTRODUCTION Temperature-dependent storage of most foods has three major roles – to allow for curing/ripening of foods that contain added active starter cultures and enzymes, to prevent quality defects, and to control pathogen growth. In making decisions on whether a food requires time/temperature control for safety, the properties of the food itself must be considered (3).
