Stephen Colbert, satirist, prankster, and lover of ice cream, recently featured recombinant bovine growth hormone on his hit show, The Colbert Report. A staple of Comedy Central's lineup, this program spoofs the media talking heads and takes a humorous look at the latest news. Food & Water Watch, and other consumer groups, had been hearing rumors that the program was going to feature rBGH, and last night the segment aired!

Check out the segment, entitled Milk & Hormones. If you don't blink, you can see footage from one of our protests outside of Starbucks, where FWW staff and volunteers are dressed as cows. (If you can't find the segment, look under "Videos" and then "Most Recent" on the sidebar.) This piece is yet more evidence that the general public is concerned about hormones in milk, and their effect on cows, milk quality, and human health.  

Let's win the fight against this harmful hormone! Find your rBGH-free dairy products here.
