Before we start this (and you know I love controversy!).. I am *not* debating my views.

Sorry. If you wish to know my feelings on the dairy industry, there is one site on my links list which should make the point very clear, even if you never visit it.

I just have a question. Got that? No arguments over the merits of consuming dairy products or alternate sources of calcium or anything. Just a question.

How could anybody reasonably say that people have to drink milk to be healthy? No species could possibly evolve with a necessity for the milk of another species, or even their own species after a certain age. That's insane! We can't escape our evolution, and we haven't had domesticated animals long enough for us to evolve to need them. So, how is it justified to say we need milk? I'm actually curious here, not argumentative.

I don't eat much dairy... in general. But it sneaks in where you don't expect! *sighs* I'm going to work harder on removing it from my diet in the spring, winter is a bad time for me to be messing with my diet.

yeah, that sounds like a good idea. all those random treats and pies occur around this season, so it'd be rather difficult. it's not that hard for me to avoid eating cheese; i just think of how gross it is and that pretty much does the trick.
