I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means

The Washington Post seems to have a bit of a misunderstanding as to what cholov yisrael means; from an otherwise positive review of Siena's Pizza in Rockville:

And as some of the faux meats contain lactose, they are not entirely cholov Israel -- that is, they combine meat and dairy -- so purely kosher diners should check with the staff.

I wish that's what cholov yisrael really meant, you know, for all of us who don't keep cholov yisrael (I know, I know, there really isn't anything that's *not* cholov yisrael acoording to R. Moshe, etc....it's just a joke).

Two points if you get the reference from the title of this post.

And for the record, at press time, Siena's is 100% kosher and under the supervision of the Capitol-K.
