    Have you tried unsweetened vanilla almond milk for cereal? I’ve been liking that the best.

    Yep, they love it but most cats are lactose intolerant.

    If you want to drink less milk or eat less meat and actually make a difference, buy less of it but spend a bit more buying from reputable and environmentally conscious producers. Same goes for produce (some of yall would be shocked at how much herbicide/pesticide is sprayed on your row/field crops like oats/wheat/soybeans, same with fruit/nut trees like almonds, the ag scientists think it's a huge factor in the CCD decline in bees in California, where most all the almonds are grown)

    Personally, I don't want to live without good cheese and butter and yogurt and milk. Do what works for you.

    I do the sweetened from Kroger's cause I don't really eat cereal, but agreed with the vanilla almond part. It's so clean tasting and easy to drink. Still a non-milk milk though.

    A big reason the price fell from $4 a gallon was the fall in gasoline prices. Particularly around the time of The Great Recession

    But they would if they could. We are the only animal that grows and cooks their food. Is that taboo as well?

    Yee. Went to the Land of the Gig Em'. Didn't enroll in Poultry Science or bend the knee in the Corp, though. Stayed on West Campus where it's safe.

    I feel like people that aren't farmers cry on behalf of the farmers. Those other jobs, it's the people in those industries crying. Me, I don't appreciate crying of any sort. Nobody is entitled to anything. Figure something out.

    Although, this is probably a one off, but he cooked his own food.

    It a lot easier to milk a teat than it is to build a fire and cook meat. Im pretty sure even a fresh dead animal, that another animals could easily access their teat, still lactate, yet you dont see any other animals taking advantage of that.

    Also where does the definition of cooking start and end?
    • Bigheaded ants place food onto the bellies of their larvae for them to spit enzymes onto, to make it easier to digest.
    • Certain monkeys put food in the sun to dry out or roast before eating
    • Certain monkeys wash food in salt water before consumption for seasoning.

    What do people put in their cereal? I eat a bowl with milk on Saturday/Sunday.
    Is Ice Cream as delicious if not made with milk? I had some of my wife's gf's vegan ice cream and it wasn't that bad. It tasted like fat free Kroger ice cream.
    What about cheese? i've never had cheese that wasn't made from some kind of milk solid. Goat cheese is pretty awesome. Can one drink Goat milk?

    Wrong. Ants are doing the equivalent, farming and milking the aphids.

    of course you can. It also has lower lactose and it's more similar to human milk chemically which makes it easier to digest. My mother only buys and drinks goat milk. It's a little more expensive than cow milk though.

    Fun fact: grown cattle will drink milk from other cows, if they'll let them.
