      Ah - that was why I was so confused. Canada, for example, limits the growth hormone in dairy cattle while the US does not.

        Hormone-free milk is widely available in the US, it just costs a little more

          Tbh, I don’t think I’ve ever seen hormone treated milk for sale in the US. They always say “not treated with rbst”, then have the disclaimer that rbst does not produce significantly different milk.

          I just assumed the hormone treated cow milk was used for making industrial foods like cheezit cheese or something.
