Link a few. Everything I have read says Soy is fine for men and boys. I'm open to whatever you link, I've gone back and forth on this, as dairy is not the healthiest choice in food. You can't cook with alternatives, but they are way less in calories. Almond milk is my current choice, but cows milk will always taste the best.

For the same reason they won’t allow people in the future to decide between gas or electric vehicles or stoves

But why?

I read in another article was to accommodate kids with dairy allergies.


My son has a dairy allergy and he won't touch soy milk. And I don't want to make him.

Seems they could slightly alter the program if that was the case though.


They should slightly alter the program if they were trying to accommodate allergies. But this "administration" is either incompetent, perverse, under the thumb of powers unknown, or all three.

This is a direct subsidy back to the Monsanto Company, who basically manages 90% of Soy production. Their lobbying efforts are paying off nicely.

Are you saying that you should eat MORE cheese and LESS vegetables?

Ingredients: Almondmilk (Filtered Water, Almonds), Calcium Carbonate, Natural Flavors, Sea Salt, Potassium Citrate, Sunflower Lecithin, Gellan Gum, Vitamin A Palmitate, Vitamin D2, D-Alpha-Tocopherol (Natural Vitamin E).

I don't know what you mean by "more" and "less". In general, I think cheese likely is better for you overall than most vegetables. The healthy aspects of vegetables are pretty exaggerated.

Sunflower Lecithin, Gellan Gum


Yum. Certainly much better for you than milk. I do however give you kudos for buying one that doesn't have crappy vegetable oils in it.

It's my understanding that soy products increase the instances of flatulence..... it's either us farting or the cows.

Soy has almost as much protein as cow milk but much more fat.

Almond is better than soy imo but lacks the protein level.

And a lot of WEF graduates. A chapter in Malone's book explains the WEF's Young Leaders program. It started in the early '90s training promising young adults on what to think.
The list of graduates explains why WEF gets so much cooperation from so many sources. Here are a few:

This would be an interesting poll. I totally disagree.

Sunflower Lecithin

Lecithin is also in cows milk.
quote:

Gellan Gum

Foods that contain Gellan Gum
It's in a lot of delicious foods.

But, we are talking about the WIC program. They can cut the allowance down to zero as far as I'm concerned. Whatever milk they get shouldn't be off the government tit.
