Got Perchlorate? (rocket fuel in milk)

got perchlorate?

The Environmental Working Group released a report entitled Rocket Fuel Contamination in California Milk.

Milk from cows raised in some parts of California may expose infants and children to more of a toxic rocket fuel chemical than is considered safe by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)…
In the first study to look for perchlorate in California supermarket milk, EWG found perchlorate in almost every sample tested — 31 out of 32 samples purchased from grocery stores in Los Angeles and Orange counties.

So in addition to cookies and peanut butter sandwiches, milk now also goes great with lettuce.
