    THANKYOU for this. I'm a veggie but am toying with the idea of becoming vegan. This helps.

    you know if nobody bought meat or milk, that cow would have never been born, right? or would be meat instead of milk
    It probably would have preferred not to be born than kept in miserable onditions.


    Miserable conditions? Have you ever actually been to a dairy farm? Obviously not.

    We are the only species that willingly drinks milk from another species and after infancy.

    cats love cows milk, my dog loves milk and yogurt, and i am sure our goats would suckle on the cows to if we let them lol

    I don't drink milk either. Not from any moral standpoint. I still eat meat. Cutting out dairy from my diet has been really good for me.

    OP......have you become lactose intolerant? 10% of people of European extraction become lactose intolerant in latter life. Flatulance can be a symptom of lactose intolerance.

    I live around dairy farms and I assure you that they aren't kept in tiny stalls.

    Yeah, but where you live, cows speak in April Winchell's voice and bully roosters and stuff. It's just not like the rest of the world.

    In what way are humans "designed" to drink almond milk?

    Humans have been eating almonds for billions of years

    Humans have not even been around for billions of years.....so there's that.

    And they've been drinking animal milk for just about as long as they've been eating almonds....what was your point, again?

    Got it. Not really a post about milk.

    All mammals will drink milk given the chance.

    We're not designed to eat ****ing seaweed but people still do it. Go badger them for stealing a manatee's dinner.

    Cow's milk is known to give cats a case of "the runs".

    Only for some cats. Same as with humans. My cat has never had any gut problems with dairy, and she eats cheese, cream, milk and cream cheese very frequently. She is 6 years old and the picture of perfect health.

    You learn something new everyday! That said, one of my cats LOVES spaghetti, but only if it has parmesan cheese on it.

    At the livestock auctions around here,and as far as I know everywhere else, unwanted male dairy calves are sold to be raised for beef. It may not be as marbled or as efficient a carcass as beef from beef breeds of cattle, but it is still perfectly good beef.] My own sister raised one of those Holstein calves for meat, grass fed, no hormones, excellent eating.

    I can't speak for everyone else, but I have eaten dairy cow. Still delicious.
