Which milk is a better option for fermentation process?
Canadian milk, regardless of whether it is organic or conventional milk, undergoes strict milk quality production procedures and rigorous testing to assure that you have the highest quality milk to enjoy.
If a dairy cow is being given antibiotics for an illness, she is temporarily removed from the milk producing herd and her milk is discarded. Once she has recovered and the antibiotics have cleared her system, her milk is again suitable for human consumption. All milk is rigorously tested for antibiotic residues prior to being accepted at the milk processing plant. All milk producers participate in the Canadian Quality Milk program. This is a science-based, on-farm food safety program that uses a preventative approach aimed at minimizing risks of food safety hazards. It helps to ensure the high quality of Canadian milk.
