Lurpak Boss Complaining About "Conspiracy Theorists Targeting His Product"

In this article the boss of Lurpak Bas Padberg complains his product has been targeted by Conspiracy Theorists.

The article then goes on to say that Lurpak does indeed make it's product from milk from cows that are being fed with Boaver, the feed additive that is given to cows to reduce methane production in the rumen. 

So far, then, not a conspiracy, you've just confirmed you use the contentious Boaver product. A product that is so toxic to humans, it requires special handling with PPE.

Bas goes further and says that Boaver is being added to dairy feed in several markets as if that's a defence against the conspiracy theorists. I say it's just reinforcing the fact it's not a conspiracy, it's the truth.

Bas goes on to say that Boaver has been approved by the UK FSA. The FSA say that milk from cows fed with Boaver is safe. Yeah we were told feeding sheep to cows was safe until BSE came along.

Hmm,  the old "safe and effective" line, where have I heard that before. 

Let's just say I would rather not be part of some trial of a chemical that is toxic, needs special handling is fed to cows and does appear in their milk, with no testing of long-term exposure.

What the article doesn't give is any balance to the debate. It just interviews a whinging CEO saying that people don't want to take his product that has this new additive in it. 

For instance it doesn't mention the side-effects of contact with Boaver if not handled correctly. It doesn't mention that the lab tests of cows shows that Boaver does in fact appear in the milk. It doesn't say there are no long-term tests to continued exposure to Boaver in milk. 

And that's what the so-called conspiracy theorists are complaining about. It's the fact that yet another industry is adding chemical products to it's own foodstuffs and claiming them to be safe with no long term exposure testing. Also why no labelling of the product so that should people choose not to consume Boaver in small amounts they can't easily find a Boaver-free product. 

A simple "Contains CO2 Reducing Additive" would be enough, so we can avoid such products if we choose to.  It would also allow those idiots that want to promote the reduction of CO2 by feeding cows a product toxic to humans to signal their virtue by buying the tainted crap.

And it's only going to get worse, as Climate Cult Captured governments eventually demand that ALL cows be fed with Boaver. Then the amounts of Boaver in milk can only increase.

Bas Padberg, it's not a conspiracy. You've admitted you are using milk tainted by Boaver. You refuse to accept that people might not want that additive in their food, it's yet again another CEO saying tough, you have no choice.

Well, Bas Buddy, we do have a choice, for now. And that's to not buy your tainted product. It's harder because you don't appear to want clear labelling, but we'll scrutinise the supplier codes on our product and buy those we know do not contain Boaver.

And when Boaver goes mainstream, we will have to bite the bullet and buy organic milk products. For as long as that's financially viable, that is. Because you can bet that rich people like CEOs of large companies won't be eating the tainted crap they produce for the masses, no they'll be eating healthy organic food.  And it will become expensive to avoid long term exposure to this feed additive that not one consumer asked for. 

And that's why your product is not being bought: we don't like being lectured to, we don't like you putting stuff in our food without us having an alternative, we don't like that you're doing it sneakily without proper labelling (why actually would you do that?), we don't like being asked first.

So Bas, I hope your product is consigned to history, or at the very least suffers a Bud Lite style backlash. If you put shit in your product the customer didn't ask for and doesn't want, expect some pushback. You sanctimonious CEOs need to be taught that the consumer is king , not a conspiracy theorist.
