They put vaccines in the milk.
If you drink the milk you don't need a VA appointment to treat that tumor for at least 18 months.

Does anyone have a pdf of the mehadrin kuntres from before Pesach? There were some pretty damning stories with today's cholov akum.
Yeah, they're a business, but there were some real arguments about major problems that have arisen since Reb Moshe's psak that didn't exist then.
I managed to forget the content.

What kind of problems?  Are there secret pig dairy farms where they milk pigs and then sneak it into our milk?

no, DA cows are treif. CS milk does not have supervision over the milking process and therefore they do not separate the DA traif cows from the herd. They rely on dubious uncompleted teshuvos, written by rav hamachshirs that literally had absolutely no choice but to come up with a "heter".... (There was no option to take the OU of thousands of products)
FTR, Rav elyashiv paskend that CS is cholov treifa.

oh that. That's nothing new. We've known about that for years and years.

I seem to recall some decent posts about it on YWN, if you can get past the OT lunacies. Here, I searched for chalav treifah and found it http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/chalav-stam-no-such-a-thing

Here is the official OU opinion (looks like they are trying too/very hard...)

don't just repeat his nonsense about it being unfinished. Just look in Rav Belsky's sefer

OK. wtvr, the point was that the teshuva originally was marked incomplete.

There was no choice but to be mattir.
Should we rely on the OU's shaas hadchak?

When I lived OOT, I would pay $5.99 for 1/2 gal and $10.99 for a gallon if milk.  American cheese was $28.99 for a brick (108 slices?).  Frozen pizza was $18.99.
And this was 6+ years ago.

These are still the prices today in the smaller out of town communities - I live in Portland, Oregon and a block of American cheese is $27-28.

Either way the tens of dollars over the course of a year aren't a "hardship" for 95% of folks..
Way to play it down...if the numbers here are true, any decent sized family buying milk in an out of town community would be paying in the vicinity of $500 more a year for CY, not just 'tens' (and that's just for milk)
I definitely know families that $500 would go a long way
(full disclosure: I'm makpid on CY and encourage its use)

Costco doesn't sell cheese in PDX?

We go through a half gallon of milk a week=$169/year at 3.25/bottle.  The non-CY stuff would save perhaps $80/year. (Tens of dollars or TODs is a famous battle cry on the UA FT board.)
Cheese is the same price thanks to Costco.

Also big families (and even small families) here where $500 would make a big difference get free milk from WIC.

My family is not big, but my son himself drinks 3 gallons a week... aside from the rest of us

Time is also money.  I barely have a chance to get to stop and shop once in a while and get groceries.  CY milk is only available once a week and would mean another errand which I simply don't have time for.

My friend who keeps CY just drinks soy milk instead

milk can be frozen actually, if it's your only option, stock up

It's safe to say I wouldn't stop keeping CY just because of the money or inconvenience. Especially if that were my minhag. But with the prices the way they are I won't start keeping it. But that really goes down to your beliefs and opinions about eating CY to begin with.
