In addition, while the use of the artificial dairy growth hormone rBST is legal in most states, consumer pressure has driven it off the market. Kroger and Walmart, with a combined share of 35 per cent of the U.S. grocery market, have been hormone-free since 2008 and most other retailers have followed suit. I challenge anyone to be able find milk not marked “hormone-free” in U.S. grocery stores.
