It's all advertising hype by the dairy board to get people to consume an unhealthy product. Quoting: av 30951384 I agree. I don't drink much cow's milk anymore, I prefer almond milk. In fact, many people are switching from cow's milk to a milk alternative, like almond milk, because of the health benefits. Mmmmmm... don't spread the word too much or we'll be paying 8 for a quart of almond milk. |

WTF is wrong with you people? Quoting: Second Best Well I eat their bodies, why not drink their milk? Unless you lack the enzymes to digest milk...if that's the case you should stay away from it, just like peanuts... The only benefit to milk as an adult is calcium. Lots of other ways to get that in to ones body without drinking test milk of another animal. Do as you please though ! Don't be so sure ... one of my employees (a minimalist to a certain degree) lives off of RAW MILK and non-commerial BREAD. He's over 60 years old ... has the energy of a 30 year old. |

We live in a bizzaro world where they never declare war but run the budget process like we are still fighting Hitler. Think of how many brilliant scholars have thought about this issue in the last 60 years. Think about how many fortunes have been made. Think about how many politicians have had statues and oil paintings made in their honor. Think about how many beggars lice tax rules are attached to IRS agents in the field. Think about how we can not possible run a monetary policy without bubble after bubble after bubble. Think about what type of science, culture, medicine and awareness could have been part of a foundational peacetime economy golden age. Think about how many people responsible have lived and died without altering the paradigm even in the slightest. Nope. We now need to have a "currency war" against china. People are getting bored with the existing wars on: terra, drugs, poverty, women, MENA, illiteracy, trade, and milk prices. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30842286 United States 12/28/2012 01:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Scary to think of what the price of a gallon of organic milk would be... Quoting: Sleeping Giant Dairy is a staple of our menus. Restaurants will have to raise prices too. When funds allow, we purchase organic milk, too. My son prefers it. Otherwise, we purchase Baremane's brand, it has a good flavor and sells for around $2.50 a gallon. I don't think I have ever seen that brand around here. We always go organic with milk. Only because we don't want our daughters to be subjected to all those hormones. Girls are growing up faster these days, and I firmly believe it's at least partly due to all the growth hormones the cows are fed. It's Bareman's, a local company here in Michigan. They do make the claim of having no artificial growth hormones in their products. Another thing about the hormones is that they cause the cows to get mastitis in their udders and then the udders get infected (which is very painful, I've had it), but the factory farmers don't take these sick cows off the milking line, they milk them even though blood and puss come out because the pasturization process kills the germs. Still, just the thought of the puss and blood in the milk made me sick. If you drink cows milk, make sure they do not use hormones, and they are a smaller farm who takes better care of their animals. It is mostly the larger factory farms to be wary of. |

And the forecasts of a happy resolution have significantly dimmed following the Dec. 20 refusal of a 30- to 40-member Republican House contingent to get behind Speaker John Boehner’s proposal to only increase taxes on incomes over $1 million. At that point, realizing the futility of trying to further whip the votes for his plan, Boehner reportedly cited the Serenity prayer and sent the Republican caucus home for Christmas. One thing that’s obvious, he(Goule) says: We’re not going to get a farm bill this year “without some type of fiscal cliff bill to attach the agriculture legislation to.” Fred Clark has grown wary of reading the tea leaves. “Who knows where things will go?” says the legislative lawyer with Cornerstone Government Affairs. “It’s difficult to guess.

Not that pasteurized milk is any good for them either. The poorest mothers will not have to worry about it, as they will get milk from WIC and/or food stamps. If the kids are too old to qualify for WIC, some moms will have another baby just to keep milk on the table for the bigger kids. The lower middle class moms (who do not qualify for food stamps) may drop milk and dairy products all together or just buy significantly less. Kids will have more juice. If you try to keep soy out of your house and you are allergic to nuts, it is hard to find milk alternatives. Rice milk does not taste great. There are plenty of other foods that have calcium and vitamins besides milk but they are not usually as popular with kids. |

Just Some Guy User ID: 1235825 United States 12/28/2012 04:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm originally from dairy country in Massachusetts. I love pretty much all dairy products. (and I won't apologize to milk nazis) If the price went up I'd just get used to it. This is where it could start. We want less government, we want the feds to spend less money. Let's start with not just dairy subsidizes but all farm subsidizes. Like I said, I won't be the one of the people putting the dairy farmer out of business. I will still buy dairy products. And, boycotting dairy certainly won't help them that's for sure. |
