Cheese Foods Tests Conducted by Firms Listing MPC on Their Food Products’ Ingredients Labels Special Supplement to The Milkweed October 2002 $2.00 Each MMilkilk ProteinProtein ConcentrateConcentrate What IS This MPC ‘Stuff?’ by Pete Hardin What is Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC)? Debating MPC issues is tough, because the fed- eral Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has no definition for this high-protein dairy powder. No definition exists for MPC because MPC is NOT an approved food ingredient under FDA rules. Hard to believe that FDA has no actual defini- tion for MPC. FDA requires all L-E-G-A-L ingredi- ents in human foods to pass exacting safety tests, defined by the “Generally Recognized As Safe” (GRAS) criteria. According to statements by high- level FDA personnel: • the government has not conducted GRAS safety tests on MPCs. • no private firm has informed FDA of GRAS safety tests completed on MPCs. Pasteurized Process • no inquiries have been made by FDA about GRAS Cheese Foods tests conducted by firms listing MPC on their food products’ ingredients labels. These Kraft Foods products are illegal. They are marketed as “Pasteurized Process Cheese See no evil. Hear no evil. Speak no evil. Food” but contain MPC. Pasteurized Processed Cheese Food is a standard of identity under FDA So, what is MPC? Perhaps the best answer to laws. FDA rules specify that no unapproved ingredients (like MPC) may be in Pasteurized Process that question comes by stating what MPC is NOT. Cheese Food products. MPC is not legal.

  • 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

  • The History of Kraft Foods Inc
    The History of Kraft Foods Inc. All About Kraft Learn everything there is to know about Kraft: like who we are, how you can reach us and what we’re doing in your community. Kraft Foods Inc. is a company with many different roots and founders, all sharing a commitment to quality, a willingness to take risks and a spirit of innovation. Among the products now sold by Kraft Foods Inc. are so many “firsts” and innovations that a history of the company is almost a history of the food industry. Kraft traces its history to three of the most successful food entrepreneurs of the late 19th and early 20th centuries — J.L. Kraft, who started his cheese business in 1903; C.W. Post, who founded Postum Cereal Company (later renamed General Foods Corporation) in 1895; and Oscar Mayer, who began his meat business in 1883. The Story of J.L. Kraft The history of KRAFT goes back to 1903, when, with $65 in capital, a rented wagon and a horse named Paddy, J.L. Kraft started purchasing cheese at Chicago’s Water Street wholesale market and reselling it to local merchants. Within a short time, four of J.L. Kraft’s brothers joined him in the business, and, in 1909, they incorporated as J.L. Kraft & Bros. Co. In 1914, J.L. Kraft and his brothers purchased their first cheese factory in Stockton, Illinois. In 1915, they began producing processed cheese in 3-1/2 and 7-3/4 ounce tins. J.L. Kraft’s method of producing processed cheese was so revolutionary, in 1916 he obtained a patent for it and in 1917 the company started supplying cheese in tins to the U.S.

(NYSE: KFT), a global leader in branded food and beverages, today announced third quarter 2005 results. Net revenues grew 4.4% in the quarter, with ongoing constant currency revenues up 3.6% from broad-based growth in North America, Europe and developing markets. Top-line growth reflected a balance of volume gains, positive product mix and commodity-driven price increases. Despite the solid top-line growth, third quarter diluted earnings per share from continuing operations declined 11.1% to $0.40 due to higher commodity and energy costs and a prior year tax favorability. As a result of higher than projected commodity costs that continue to impact the overall food industry, as well as the company’s decision to balance top-line growth and cost recovery through pricing, full- year 2005 guidance for diluted earnings per share was reduced to $1.68 - $1.71 from $1.73 - $1.78.

    Show Transcript Deconstructing Dinner Kootenay Co-op Radio CJLY Nelson, B.C. Canada April 12, 2007 Title: Packaged Foods Exposed - Kraft Part III Producer/Host: Jon Steinman Transcript: Jennie Monuik Jon Steinman: And this is Deconstructing Dinner, a weekly one-hour radio show and podcast produced at Kootenay Co-op Radio CJLY in Nelson, British Columbia. I’m Jon Steinman. For those of you who are frequent listeners of the program, you are probably aware of the many series that air periodically each week on Deconstructing Dinner, and what has probably been the most popular of these series, is the Packaged Foods Exposed series, where we pick one of the largest food companies in the world and spend the entire show learning as much as one can hopefully learn in an hour. And this popularity is understandable given brand name foods are essentially an integral component of Canadian and North American culture, and it’s these foods that we as Canadians often take for granted. They fill the shelves of our grocery stores, they stare us down in magazines and newspapers, they hang out inside our televisions and speak to us on the airwaves. In April 2006 we aired part I of this series with a one-hour expose on PepsiCo, a few months later on part II, Swiss-based Nestle was put under the spotlight, and today, on part III, we will deconstruct the second largest packaged foods company in the world and the largest in North America, Illinois-based Kraft Foods, a company founded in the early 20 th century by Canadian-born J.L Kraft.
