The School Nutrition Association (SNA) has released a new study that indicates a positive change in school cafeterias – improvements in the nutritional profile of foods sold.
Over the past two years, there has been a marked emphasis on healthy school environments and increasing availability of nutritious foods, according to School Nutrition Association (SNA)’s School Nutrition Operations Report: The State of School Nutrition 2007. Released last week, the report is an updated version of a similar report issued in May 2005. It was based on a survey of 1,200 school nutrition directors around the US, and benchmarks detailed information impacting school nutrition programs.
The report found that 97 percent of schools offer fat-free or low-fat milk, 96 percent offer fresh fruits and vegetables, 88 percent offer salad bars or pre-packaged salads, and 81 percent offer yogurt and yogurt drinks. In addition, from-scratch baked items are available in 63 percent of schools, and vegetarian meals in 52 percent. The availability of locally grown fruits and vegetables also increased to 32 percent of schools.
Under terms of the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act, as of July 1, 2006 every school that participates in the school lunch or school breakfast program- the large majority of US schools- was required to have a local wellness policy in place. The policy, designed to address the problem of childhood obesity, requires that schools set nutrition standards for all foods sold in school, including in vending machines, a la carte lines, and school stores. According to SNA, many of the positive changes cited in its latest reports are due in part to the implementation of local wellness policies this past school year.

Race fans at the Indiana State Fair have been able to enjoy a unique sculpture made out of cheese that commemorates the American Dairy Association of Indiana’s involvement with the Indianapolis 500.
Cheese artist Sarah Kaufmann unveiled her masterpiece entitled “Winners Drink Milk” on Aug. 13. The finished sculpture depicts a race winner drinking milk surrounded by an IndyCar Series car and the sculpture’s title. The piece, complete with milk dripping from the lips of the victor, took 67 hours to create.
The sculpture is made of Indiana cheddar cheese and weighs nearly 1,300 pounds. It took two blocks of cheese weighing 640 pounds each to create the sculpture. The ADA commissioned the sculpture to celebrate the tradition of the Indianapolis 500 winner drinking milk in Victory Circle.
Kaufmann, a Wisconsin native known as “The Cheese Lady,” has sculpted cheese to resemble 1969 Indy 500 winner Mario Andretti and Rahal Letterman Racing co-owner David Letterman.
“Winners Drink Milk” will be on display in the Our Land Pavilion until the end of the Indiana State Fair on Aug. 19. After the State Fair, the cheese sculpture will be processed into feed for Indiana farm animals.

Pennsylvania teachers will have a new tool when the 2007 school year begins, a free Web-based lesson series that teaches third and fourth graders about the dairy industry in the Keystone state. Called “Discover Dairy” the five lesson series was funded by the Pennsylvania Dairy Promotion Program and developed in a partnership with the Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association and the Pennsylvania Center for Dairy Excellence.
“Discover Dairy… Beyond the Refrigerator” is a series of five online lessons using video, classroom activities, interactive games and formal instruction to showcase dairy farming in Pennsylvania. The Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association and Pennsylvania Dairy Promotion Program are focused on enhancing dairy product demand. The ‘Discover Dairy’ lesson series meets both objectives by showing children the commitment dairy farmers have to producing a quality product, and encouraging them to make good choices – one of which is to include milk and dairy products in their diets.
The five lessons focus on animal health, milk safety, the environment, the economy and dairy nutrition, and each meets Pennsylvania educational standards for third and fourth grades. The lessons include a downloadable four-minute video clip, a formal lesson with prepared overheads and teaching instructions, a hands-on classroom activity that teaches the lesson concepts, a student evaluation worksheet and an interactive Web-based activity to reinforce the lessons.
The video clips were filmed on three Pennsylvania dairy farms to give students a real-life view of dairy farming practices using today’s technology to care for the animals and the environment. The three farms featured in the videos are Moo Echo Farms, which is owned by the Hertzlers in Loysville; Star Rock Dairy, which is owned by the Barleys in Conestoga; and Vista Grande Farm, which is owned by the Bitlers in Fleetwood.

A New York Assemblyman, Darrel Aubertine has introduced legislation to study the impact of milk hauling costs on dairy farmers. At question is ownership – once the milk leaves the farm, who owns it, and therefore who should pay the hauling cost?
“Ultimately it’s going to boil down to where does ownership begin and end. Today there is no clear define line as to where ownership begins and end’s,” said Aubertine.
Most dairy farmers argue that when the milk is mixed into a tank with other farm’s milk, it becomes the responsibility of the hauler because at that point the buyer owns the milk.
Should dairy farmers or the buyer be responsible for the costs of hauling milk? Many farmers argue that as soon as the milk is drawn out of their tank, it’s then the haulers, so they should pay the fee. A new study is underway to determine where ownership begins and ends.
As for the study, it’s being conducted by the Department of Agriculture and Markets. They’ll collect information from the past 20 years. Then based on that, Assemblyman Aubertine say’s they’ll put together a piece of legislation.
Klock says farmers didn’t always have to pay to have their milk hauled. He says in the early 1960′s, the cost was handed over to the individual farms. Before then, the buyer or hauling company was responsible, according to Klock.

The Washington Huskies, the University of Washington’s football team, have incorporated chocolate milk into their daily practices. The team’s staff is requiring Huskie players to drink a carton of fat-free chocolate milk to replish the nutritients in their bodies after the grueling practices. Here’s hoping they have a winning season – thanks to chocolate milk!
The Huskies are experimenting with a new form of nutritional replacement following practices. Along with giving the usual water and sports drinks to rehydrate and replenish during grueling preseason practices, Washington’s football staff is requiring its players to drink a small carton of fat-free chocolate milk.
“This is just another way to facilitate post-exercise carbohydrate replenishment. This is another facet that we can use in our supplement program,” Washington director of sport performance Trent Greener said. “The research substantiates it and it’s something too that the kids are going to be compliant with.”
The decision to implement the program came after a study last fall from scientists at Indiana University that was published in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism and was supported in part by the Dairy and Nutrition Council. The small study found no significant difference between using a fluid-replacement drink or chocolate milk for athletes following exercise, with dairy folks touting the nutritional benefits of drinking milk — chocolate or otherwise.
It was a limited study, but caught the eye of Greener and UW sports nutritionist Emily Edison. Along with athletic trainer Rob Scheidegger, the trio developed a plan to take the use of chocolate milk one step further, building upon a program already in place.
“We’ve always used Gatorade,” Scheidegger said. “But we’re always trying to find ways to get natural foods into people. So if we can find a natural product at the end of practice that aids with recovery, keeps them hydrated and gives them the energy that they need we’re going to go with something like that.”
So, following practices this month, while players are taking ice baths to cool their legs, they are required to drink a bottle of Gatorade and a carton of milk back-to-back before leaving the field. Greener said Washington isn’t alone in experimenting with chocolate milk, but wasn’t sure how extensive the use. The Huskies plan to work a similar regime into their regular season nutritional plans as well.
“It tastes good to me and, hey, if it’s nutritious and helps my body, I’m all for it,” wide receiver Cody Ellis said.
When asked recently what was the best part of being a Husky, center Juan Garcia had a unique answer: “I said ‘tradition and chocolate milk.”‘

As Americans clamor for more convenient and healthy food options, yogurt is turning out to be one of their top choices.
Among packaged foods and snacks, only quick breakfast options, yogurt and a few types of snacks–mainly healthier options–increased their household penetration rates by one percentage point or more during the past few years, according to a new “On-the-Go Eating” study from the Packaged Facts division of MarketResearch.com.
On the yogurt front, Yoplait’s household penetration grew 1.4 points, to 19.8%. (Stonyfield Farm’s gain was just short of one percentage point, rising from 1.7% to 2.4%.)
Among snacks, most of the significant gainers were brands positioned as healthy choices. These included Nature Valley Bars (up nearly three percentage points, to 10.3%), the Power Bar (from zero to 2%) and Nabisco Fruit Snacks (zero to 1.6%). The rest of the big on-the-go packaged food brands were stagnant, or saw slight losses, in terms of household penetration.
Sales trends more or less mirror the penetration trends. PF’s analysis of IRI data for mass-market outlets (supermarkets, drug stores and mass merchandisers, excluding Wal-Mart) shows yogurt as the No.1 dollar gainer between 2005 and 2006: up $185 million (7.2%), to $2.8 billion. Dannon’s new Activa brand did much to boost the category (ringing up $126 million last year), as did all of Yoplait’s yogurt and yogurt drink selections (the brand’s Light Thick And Creamy and Light varieties saw sales increases of $34 million and $32 million, respectively, for example.)

New research has shown that drinking milk after a workout can help the exerciser gain more muscle and lose more fat than sports drinks.
The reason, researchers believe, is that, in addition to liquid for hydration and carbohydrates for energy, milk is also rich in protein, while sports drinks contain little or no protein.
“The protein in milk is high quality,” Stuart Phillips, an associate professor of kinesiology at McMaster University in Hamilton and lead author of the study, said in an interview. “We also think the way milk proteins are digested by the body confers some benefits.”
The new study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, involved 56 men aged 18 to 30 who signed up for a rigorous five-day-a-week weightlifting program over a 12-week period. The participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups, based on their recovery drink.
One group drank 500 millilitres (about two cups) of skim milk that contained 17.5 grams of protein, 25.7 grams of carbohydrates and 0.4 grams of fat. A second group received a soy drink with identical ratios of nutrients, while a third group got a sports drink.
All three beverages contained 735 calories and were flavoured identically with vanilla and served in opaque containers so participants did not know what exactly they were drinking. Over the study period, all the young men gained muscle mass and most lost fat, but the milk drinkers came out ahead across the board.
For example, the milk-drinking group lost, on average, two pounds of fat each, compared with one pound each for those in the sports-drink group. The soy-beverage drinkers neither lost nor gained fat. The milk drinkers also came out on top in muscle gain, adding, on average, 2.5 pounds more muscle than the soy-beverage drinkers and 3.3 pounds more than the sports-drink group.
“The practical results are obvious: If you want to gain muscle and lose weight as a result of working out, drink milk,” Dr. Phillips said.
While the study did not involve aerobic exercise, he noted that other research has also pointed to the benefits of milk – and chocolate milk in particular – for rehydration and recovery. At marathons, for example, chocolate milk – which is packed with more carbs than regular milk – has become the recovery drink of choice for many finishers.
The research was funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the U.S. National Dairy Council. Dr. Phillips stressed that the dairy council grant came with no strings attached and the lobby group had no input on the study design or outcome.

Last week I got to attend a media event at Pfizer Animal Health. They brought in a group of agricultural journalists for a behind the scenes look at their veterinary medicine research and development facility/farm in Michigan. One of the people I met was Bill Loveland. Bill manages their research dairy.
Pfizer has a state of the art dairy facility that allows them to handle up to 128 animals at a time. Bill says the facility opened in 2004 and since then they’ve pretty much been in continuous study mode doing about 35 studies on topics like mastitis, reformulations and residues. He says most of the studies last from 2 to 4 months and that he’s got a regular staff of 4 people although they bring in more if needed. He’s really proud of their work in transitional cow studies.
I interviewed Bill at the end of our tour of the facility and you can listen to that interview here: pfizer-vmrd-07-loveland.mp3

Congrats to Leelanau Cheese Company for taking the Best in Show award at the 2007 American Cheese Society competition last week in Burlington, Vt. with their Aged Raclette. The entry beat out 1,200 cheeses to claim the prize.
It was the largest field in U.S. history, representing a 27% increase in entries over last year. Leelanau Cheese Co. owners Anne and John Hoyt make the semi-hard Swiss-style cheese at Black Star Farms in Suttons Bay, using pasteurized milk from a single dairy farm to make the eight- to nine-pound wheels.
Raclette, which has a mild, nutty flavor, typically is served melted with cornichons, boiled potatoes and chunks of bread for dipping. The cheese is available at their shop at Black Star Farms. Their only metro Detroit retailer is Whole Foods Market.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Bostana Dairy in eastern Montana. A large fire this week killed about 200 cows and caused at least $2.5 million in damage.
Firefighters were called to Bostana Dairy, the dairy’s milking parlor, mechanical room, sick bay and vet clinic area were destroyed. Three loafing sheds and some outbuildings were spared.
The fire apparently started in the mechanical room. A state fire marshal was investigating.
Four dairy employees who were inside the facility when the fire started got out safely, but two firefighters were injured, Vojacek said. One suffered second-degree burns to his nose, lips and cheeks after a piece of insulation fell on him, and the other experienced heat exhaustion. About 1,000 cows were rescued from the burning dairy.
