ורב מ"ש גבינה דלא טרח ומזייף חלב נמי לא טרח ומזייף אמר רב כהנא אפיק חלב ועייל חתיכת דג שאין בה סימן

And to Rav why is cheese different, in that [the non-Jew] would not take the trouble to commit a fraud [and allows one seal]; likewise with milk he would not take the trouble to commit a fraud [and yet Rav demands two seals]? R. Kahana said: Strike out the word “milk” and insert “a piece of fish” which has no distinguishing mark.
