YMZ, you can buy this at Costco. Up in the great white north, it is about $10.

When we switched to this maybe 6 months ago, I just felt that the milk tasted funny. I have now come to the conclusion that the old stuff that I was drinking was really the funny stuff.

Organic is really the way to go.

I've tried Whole Milk and 1% with him. I'll try some skim next to see if that helps.

Milk is gross altogether...

What do you have cereal with?

Do you know what the compositional difference between organic and conventional milk is?

Nothing.

Ya I'm not paying $10 for milk. Whether it's organic or not.

A little milk mixed with water.

the nutrient comp may have minimal differences but I choose to promote or support organic practices.

I swear I'm not a crazy wacko, but I'm not sure I totally agree with this. There's a whole slew of crap that farmers can feed their stock that will show up in cow's milk. My mom's neighbor was growing 40 lb turkeys by pumping them full of steroids. Who knows what some of these guys are doing to increase milk production.

It is much better if the cow can naturally graze on grass, conventional farms feed the cows grains and also pump them full of other crap. it is hard to believe that doesn't show up in milk.

Got home and discovered my son managed to peel roughly 2' X 2' of paint off the dining room wall. Anyone want to adopt?

Every trailer load of milk is tested for a multitude of bad things. If something is found then the farmer buys the entire load and it gets dumped down the drain. (6500+ gallons worth)

Do you think dairy farmer's buy milk from the store? nope, they drink what they produce.

I'm not sure where the image of a cow grazing on grass it's entire life as being better came from but they need their vitamins, minerals, and a balanced diet just everything else.

I don't think the media hype is totally accurate and the organic coops have done a great job of marketing... this doesn't mean I oppose organic foods (everything prior to pesticides and genetic engineering was organic. I just don't see where the definition of better came from and can't see paying for inflated margins to get the organic label.

not trying to sway anyone here, just playing devils advocate, apparently.

The flaw in this one is bleach.

goat milk 4lyfe!

this tastes like the cow got into an onion patch.

If moms can drink booze while breast feeding and no harm to baby then i am sure the same is ok for 1%.

My wife's family used to own a big dairy in south Ga. They still kept about 20 cows (before her aunt died). I couldnt develop a taste to drink the milk straight from the cow but her relatives did... I did learned what the phrase "scrape the butter off the top of the jar of milk meant"

Yeah...that's a big no-no. Worse than drinking while pregnant since you don't have the placenta to filter out the alcohol.

Kevo - does Costco sell organic whole milk?

 

[Road Guy]

Its perfectly fine

 

[YMZ PE]

It is? Well damn.

 

[kevo_55]

YMZ, yes. We typically buy the 1% but it does come in whole as well.
