Good sources of calcium ?

Question

there is a major recall on meats,dairy products because of listeria bacteria in canada . now i don't want to take chances so i can't drink milk or eat cheese. so i want to know a good source of calcium that isn't a dairy product.

Answer 1

take a calcium supplement for the duration of the recall. It won't last long.

Any milk holding tank that isn't sanitized three times a day is likely to get bacteria in it. Once sanitized there is no more problem.

I say 3 times a day because that is how often most dairies milk now. The problem is extremely temporary.

Milk going into cheese plants is tested and if it has any bacteria in it that isn't supposed to be there it is dumped.

I wouldn't worry about the milk unless it is sourced from your local dairy!! Then they won't be able to put any product on the shelves and so will go out of business.

Answer 2

There are a number of food stuffs fortified with calcium compounds. For instance orange juice comes in that form.
