That is a lie. Dairy farming has been in trouble for awhile. Less milk consumption, tougher market. Dean and Borden have filed for bankruptcy.

I am so bummed about Borden. Great eggnog - beats Dean’s/Barber’s hands down. I hope they bounce back well.

And the main culprit is Walmart since they opened their own milk processing plant.
