The post above was actually written in June 2009 and we've since switched our milk from Horizon to Organic Valley (rated a "4 cow excellent"... I'm happy to see that). Again, this is great information and I thank you for sharing (and yes, it should concern anyone if there is a "refusal" to participate)...! This will likely be a blog topic very soon!

The Institute gathered objective information about the companies who refused to participate in the study. There is an entire section dedicated to laying out just how factory farms, like Horizon do business. Plus, doesn't it concern you at all that they were unwilling to be transparent about their practices? It does me.

If you are really interested in healthy and sustainable living, read this study conducted by the Cornucopia Institute: http://www.cornucopia.org/2008/01/dairy-report-and-scorecard/ It's incredibly interesting material and I would encourage you to share it with your followers!

And it is steamed (no frying). Hope it helps =) why dont u try to mix the egg with other ingredients?

hmm…try this –> egg-tofu
all u need is tofu, egg, salt and pepper to give the food taste, and vegetables (carrot, bean, etc — cut them into small cubical shape) if u want to (for a healthier food ^^)

smash the tofu,
add the egg and vegetables (it’s up to u how much eggs and vegetables u want to add),
add salt and pepper.

put them on a pyrex, and steam for a while so that it becomes solid.

it is a healthy food because u get protein from the egg and tofu, and vitamins from the vegetables. And it is steamed (no frying).

Hope it helps =)
