I never drink milk. (I only eat trace ammounts on my cereal every morning) No other mammal drinks milk after reaching maturity, and certaintly not that of another species, either.

Are we humans that different than the rest of the animals?


Besides, milk has beef hormones, fat, and even a little bit of cows blood in it.


Here's some info to support my claim:

Milk is awesome IF it is very cold. Kinda warmish cold milk is baaad (like school cafateria milk). Actually chochlatey chochlate milk is good, like nesquick. Most other brands seem too 'milked-down' to me.

My parents used to force me to drink all my milk in order to leave the dinner table, and I hated it with a passion. That stopped around like, sixth or seventh grade I think. And since then because I'm not forced to drink it, I enjoy it once in a while. Kind of interesting how that worked out.

Same here. I drink a glass of milk in the morning, some Hawiian punch at lunch (school lunch, it's the best thing they have. And it's pretty bad.), and then some orange juice when I get home. I have a glass of milk or orange juice for dinner, depending on what we're eating, and intermitten(s?) glasses of both milk and OJ throughout the day.

Usually I don't drink milk, because usually it is somehow warm and it never tastes like anything, but sometimes there are moments when cold milk does taste so damn good.

Several gallons a week, but I am trying to cut back a little more because of the traces of female horomones that get into your body. Makes for bad acne mostly.

Skim milk I can't stand drinking without food (it is all I drink though). 1-2% takes that nasty edge off that skim has, even 1/2% would do. Getting it in a paper carton tastes a lot better than the plasticied milk you get in jugs.

I drink over a gallon of rice milk per week. I also eat soy "yogurt" and margarine instead of butter. However, I still eat regular old cow cheese because the vegetable substitutes are sadly lacking in all positive qualities...

If you just don't like drinking straight milk but still like cheese, ice cream, etc. then give rice milk a try. They add the same amount of calcium and vitamin D as milk so all you're losing is the grotesque thickness and aftertaste [and duringtaste for that matter].

There was a man who would always drink only one thing, and this was a soda of some sort. However, it had "added calcium and vitamin D", so he figured it was all he had to drink. He did not turn out very well.

im sorry, im still laughing at when pagewizard said that it has traces of blood in it

i dont know if you know how the BOOB works but here goes.

if you were to cut a pregnant womans breast just inches before the nipple, youd see it was still blood. it only turns into milk at like this point where it passes through this certain filter. its truely one of natures most amazing miracles. so if youre wondering why babies need milk, its coz it has all those nutrients in it, because your blood has all those nutrients in it.

we as adults need milk for the calcium its the easiest source and taking supplements can be harmful if youre taking supplements for multiple elements. so milk is a safe bet, or any dairy product. if you eat meat, then having traces of beef fat in it should not be a problem. if beef is your problem, have goats milk, it is healthier. expensive but healthier. and yes it all has fat in it but no ones asking you to OD on milk. everything is good for you in balance. OD on anything and itll kill you.

[teletubbie voice] BIG HUG!!!! [/teletubbie voice]

According to the article I posted, the calcium in cows milk is not in a form that humans can use. It was written by a doctor, and doctors are supposed to know what they're talking about.

Darth J: Really? Milk gives my mum's cats diahrea(sp?), so how good for them could it really be?

I eat meat frequently, but I will never touch liquid milk. (I still eat ice cream and cheese, but in moderation) There are plenty of other ways to get calcium.

Actually some animals do drink milk after maturity. I've seen cats that drank milk even after they're weened, if their mother still produces and will let them that is.

So what if milk has traces of "blood" in it, it's not like you ever see red sifting around. Plus if you eat steak, can you imagine how much stuff was in that? It formed beside bone, arteries, etc. Yummy!

I pour milk on my cereal. Other than that, I don't really like milk. I agree, it's not very good to just drink straight. Mixed with chocolate or egg-nogg or something, it's alright, but not just plain milk. Bleh. :x

What's that got to do with anything? Bacon, steaks, and cheeseburgers all have those things in them. What's the difference if you find it in milk? I mean, milk is coming from the exact same source as the meat. Unless your one of them freaky vegan dudes, I can't see that as an argument not to drink milk. And who cares if other animals don't drink milk in maturity? I've never seen an elephant post on a message board, so why should you do it?! It's a stupid argument. There are millions of things we humans do that other animals don't do, and in comparison, drinking milk is pretty friggin trivial.

------------------
"When all else fails, eat pie."
-¬thoughts from beyond observance

If anything, drinking milk is a sign of human ingenuity, rather than human depravity. We were clever enough to figure out that we can get nutrition from the milk of cows or goats long after becoming independant of our mothers.

In fact, in Norse mythology, the first living being was a cow, and the second was a giant who lived solely off of the cow's milk. Now, I'm not sure what Norse mythology has to do with the discussion at hand, but I enjoy random facts about the Norse. The Norse were cool.

Anyway, it's not the trace amount of blood you need to worry about in milk, it's the amounts of puss that gets pumped out of the cows when they get an infection and it's not "cost-effective" to filter it out.
