Warns
about
effect
of ligh
on milk...
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
