I can get milk in glass bottles here. In fact, it's available at quite a few locations throughout the country. The only hassle is having to pay a deposit on the bottles.

Where's the entry for chocolate milk?

I don't drink milk often but when I do its always whole milk.

I tend to avoid fat-free dairy products in general. They never taste good. Low fat is usually OK for things like yogurt and cottage cheese.

I can get raw milk in glass bottles at Sprouts but it's $8.99 a quart.

Until you get milk that gets infected with salmonella or listeria, bacterium that is eliminated through pasteurization.


First you had this outbreak in 2003 in Ohio which led to the state banning sales of raw milk to consumers:

But obviously, some people don't believe in regulation of dairy products and there is another outbreak in 2015:

Almond milk is for baby almonds. Think of all the trees that won't grow, because you ground up their seeds...

Almonds aren't for humans either by that measure. Or do you see a label on them saying "for humans" that the rest of us can't see?


Nothing is specifically for humans to eat other than human milk. Everything else we eat is just because its edible. In fact, cow's milk (or any other mammal milk like goat or sheep milk) is about the closest you get to something that is specifically for humans to eat - i.e. our own milk. Potatoes aren't for humans - they are for making more potato plants. Soy beans aren't for humans, they're for spreading new soy plants. Cow's milk is as much for humans as almonds are. i.e. not naturally produced for the purpose of feeding humans but edible and used for that purpose.
