It's a way milk farmers get around federal anti-trust legislation.Mental gymnastics. And Sorry what’s a Food Cooperative? Maybe I’m stupid.
EDIT: This isn't a joke, that's literally what it is. The Capper-Volstead Act is a carve-out for agricultural producers from the Sherman Antitrust Act. It's illegal for GM and Ford to get together and fix the price of cars, but it's perfectly legal for Farmer Joe and Farmer Bob to get together to fix the price of butter.
