Every good Teamster Wife, Daughter and Son knows that Teamster families are NOT allowed to purchase products that are not supported by the Union.
This includes the situation we were in that found our elementary school cafeteria only provided milk that was supplied by non-unionized dairies (gasp) - Purity. Teamster Daughters were never allowed to drink these non-union products, even at school or in the homes of our friends or neighbors.
We had to forgo milk with our school lunch and drink water or bring our lunch from home with thermos filled with milk produced by only hardworking union folks. A true act of rebellion against Teamster Daddy would be to harbor Purity ice cream in our freezer or let that milk touch our lips.
When the milk in the school cafeteria changed back to Sealtest we excitedly reported back to T-Daddy and were allowed to buy milk again at school. Same goes for bread etc....
To this day, I cannot bring myself to buy Purity Milk at the grocery store - it would be like breaking some grave moral Teamster code.
