    you ppl are aware that health regulations allow for a certain amount of bug and cockroaches to be found in our food... we dont live in a perfect world... dont like it??? buy your own cow and then you know exactly where everything is coming from!

    And then you may never drink milk again!! Many do not realize just how dirty fresh milk can be. A single cow means hand milking...even if everything else (equipment, udder, etc) are thoroughly cleaned, it still has to be filtered for hair at the very least.

    I was once one of those parents that kept things ultra-clean. Our second child broke me of that by 1) eating a fly and 2) latching onto the dog's nipple to nurse (no, she wasn't especially pleased!) By the time he was a year old, I was like Fine, whatever, as long as it didn't fall in the dog crap, just blow it off! (Not really but you get the idea.)

    Actually, I would argue that large-scale commercial food processing poses far greater risk to our health than "dirty" food directly from farmers. (I used to buy cream direct from a farmer and NEVER ever found any dirt/bugs/hair in it and it wouldn't have bothered me if I did..) Anyone notice all the food recalls lately? The contamination occurs during processing most of the time, not on the farms (exceptions for farms that use sewage/industrial sludge to "fertilize" their fields.).

    I only drink chocolate milk when I'm menstruating. Makes the whole situation less weird.

    If I knew blood tasted this good, I'd have been drinking everyone else's a long time ago.
    God it must be great to be a vampire. Chocolate milk 24/7.

    All conventional milk has a small percentage of puss and blood in it. Totally grosses me out!

    Why don't they just use it for strawberry milk?

    That is so true!

    Another reason my almond milk makes me happy..... :drinker:

    How do you milk an almond? I didn't know they had nipples? :laugh:

    "Greg, a cat has nipples. Can you milk a cat?"
    Yes you really can milk a cat if you wanted to, just sayin...

    Almond milk, almond water, almond juice. Whatever you want to call it, I'm with you! Milk is for making little cows turn into big cows...I'm big enough, thanks.

    H:

    That's why I drink twice as much milk on days when I do calf raises.
    I award you a full internet!

    ^^ AGREE!

    (And I'm so excited to get to agree with you about something! :flowerforyou:)

    I'll agree with you on the processing part. As for the cream, it had likely been strained through cheesecloth. I have picked plenty of cow hair out of my milk when it was still pre-filter, but it didn't bother me in the sense of unclean... it just somehow felt like I was about to swallow toothbrush bristles.

    i heard from a few dairyland workers that chocolate milk has blood in it...

    when they milk the cow, the start of it is nice and white so they use that as regular milk.. then when it gets to the end of milking a cow they get a bit of blood in it.. so instead of having a "strawberry milk".. lol.. they put chocolate in it and call it chocolate milk...

    anyone hear this before?

    As someone who has worked on dairy farms. this can't be true since all the milk goes into one big tank. For that matter who cares, my steak has blood in it, that doesn't stop me from eating it.

    My dad is a dairy farmer and I've hooked more cows up to to the Surge machine more times than I can count. I think someone is telling you tall tales.

    BTW, Cow tipping is an urban legend too.
