My kids go through 2 gallons of milk per week. What are all these other kids drinking if they are not drinking milk?

A lot of people have switched to soy and almond milk. I know we very rarely ever have real milk in my house unless we are baking something that needs it. Both me and the kid are lactose intolerant and drink soy milk. I've gotten use to the taste and it's fine on cereal. I don't enjoy drinking milk anyway, just mostly for the kid.

That cow’s milk is healthy is a myth that’s been told so long it’s become truth.Actually it’s good for calves,bad for people.Several studies have been done that show the countries that have the highest intake of dairy have the highest incidence of osteoporosis.The Harvard Nurses’Health Study is one such study.
I don’t know how to do links but an informative book is RETHINK FOOD by Castle and Goodman,can order from Amazon.
Besides detrimental health effects of dairy,modern dairy farming is disgusting.Cows don’t go out in pasture to graze,they are confined to a stall and their food is brought to them on a conveyer belt.They are shot up with hormones to increase their milk production and milked 3 times a day.This excessive milking makes them prone to mastitis so they get antibiotics for that.The FDA allows certain number of somatic cells in milk,somatic cells is medical term for pus.Think about that shite next time you are drinking that cold glass of milk.

Sad news. Borden's was my brand for years back before I found I was lactose intolerant.

Dairy industry is falling apart. Just too much milk, too much cheese out there. It’s a mess

Amen brother LSUA 75. The dairy industry is built on a scam and is gross af.

Back at LSU I'd go to the ice cream shop on Stadium and loved me some butter pecan. A friend took me to the AgCenter and when I saw the dairy cows I was fn appalled at how disgusting those herpes udders were and halted my dairy consumption then and there.

udder bullshite.


if you saw dairy cows at the Agcenter, it was for a livestock show. The pics you posted were of cows with mastitis which are not used for milking when infected. A dairy cow that can't be milked is an expense. Thus dairies make a concerted effort to prevent mastitis. a lot of effort and money is put into herd health just to avoid that and other maladies.

stay in the city and enjoy your soy milk. you are too soft for agricultural endeavors.

We drink about a half-gallon of milk per week. I can't tell the difference between the walmart brand and name brands. All tastes the same to me. so we go with walmart brand.

All them lactose-field baws gonna have to sell their F-250s. Volatile industry milk. frick’em. I’m tired of paying $5 a gallon at the supermarket.

Prices too high for Borden, competitor's brand is $1 cheaper.
