CONTINUED FROM P. 10 series of press con- ferences in these cities. "We were shocked by the light intensity in some outlets," he said. "One location in 'Toronto was subjecting milk in transparent plastic bags and jugs to 450 foot candles, more than seven times the absolute maximum light intensity recommended in our study." The survey in Montreal revealed that the light intensity ranged from 160 to 240 foot candles. In Ottawa stores, light in- tensity ranged from 320 to 160 foot candles. Quebec City dairy cases readings were from 240 to 110. Only in Halifax, in readings taken in August, has some progress been made in reducing light intensity, . deMan said. Halifax readings were from' 130 to 55 and generally were lower across the board. The original University of Guelph report ,showed that milk subjected to light for 48 hour's had an almost complete loss of ascorbic acid in clear plastic pouches and returnable plastic jugs. Milk in Opaque card- board cartons had about a three percent loss. "Just as important as the nutritional loss by light exposure is the fact. that an oxidized off - flavour developed in the transparent pouches and plastic jugs within six hours, and highly significant flavour changes occurred in 12 hours," he emphasized. "Milk in opaque card- board cartons showed no significant flavour change in 48 hours." "Milk is now at -an historically high price, and it is absolutely essential that the milk consumer be protected from nutritional losses and flavour deterioration," he added. "It is the food retailer's responsibility to either drastically curb light exposure or provide the consumer with light- resistant opaque con- tainers. The brilliance of the light now used is also a gross waste of our hydro resources." To insure accuracy, two types of light meters .were -used -in the -surveys, and food outlets were chosen at random. The survey also recorded the distance of the light sources from the dairy products they illuminated Glen G.
