Kudos to Canada for Keeping Cheese Real

It’s great to see Canada’s court system ruling against Saputo and Kraft and demanding that cheese actually contain real milk.

The cheese makers objected to the government’s decision to establish minimum use of liquid milk, something that benefits dairy farmers, but which raises the costs for cheese processors.

The Federal Court of Appeal had dismissed the companies’ objections to rules regarding the content of both domestic and imported cheese.

Thanks to Michael Pollan pointing this out on his Twitter stream.
