Got Milk

[He Man]

Its come to my attention that not many people like milk as much as I do.
And its also come to my attention that I may have already done this post in the past.

But who here drinks milk with everything....and when they are thirsty grabs a glass of milk, then pours another just for the flavor, and then just a mouthful to wishwash around to get the creamy fattening after taste? By everything i mean..pizza, steak, pasta, burgers, sandwhiches, etc.

If you pick option 3, i'd assume your going with option 1 aka you like milk. Brb while i enjoy my Spicy Jamaican beef patty with a glass of milk.

[ROBsS4R]

I generally rarely drink a class of Milk but I love cheese so much I think I fall into the category of I would Hit it but I did pick option 3 

[Porsche Monkey]

Same here, I rarely drink milk by itself. Do love cheese though. Any cheese except goat cheese.

[Howie]

I generally don't like milk with food, except, of course, dry breakfast cereal.  For dinner, wine or beer.  I do use milk and cream in cooking.

So do you Drink Milk or not   

[ZLTFUL]

Mmmm. An ice cold glass of buttermilk. Just the way nature intended it. 

[Oldfisti]

I'll see your and raise you a

  has butter in it. And cheese if it's any good. Prostate cancer all the way!


To quote Ahhnold:  "Milk is for babies. I drink beer."

[A.B]

If it wasn't so expensive I could easily drink a gallon a day.  And I like it with everything too. Last night I had a tall glass with my lamb chops.

[il d00d]

Cow milk is great.  For baby cows.

I have not been subjected to a glass of milk in many, many years.   One, because I had a mild allergy when I was a kid, and two, I guess I never developed a taste for it.  To me, all milk smells like spoiled milk.  Love me some dairy product though.
An interesting factoid on lactose, the human race has only recently (in the last few thousand years) developed a tolerance for lactose in adulthood.  And this does not apply universally to all countries/cultures - from Wikipedia "According to Heyman (2006), approximately 70% of the global population cannot tolerate lactose in adulthood. Thus, some argue that the terminology should be reversed â€" lactose intolerance should be seen as the norm, and the minority groups should be labeled as having lactase persistence."

[minkman]

I go through about 2 gallons a week myself. Milk is great with everything. I drink it with all meals and when I'm just thirsty.

[mitt]

Milk is for babies.  I think the US is the only country in the world where adults drink it like a beverage.

Milk is for babies.  I think the US is the only country in the world where adults drink it like a beverage.

It's because our European ancestors had a gene mutation that allows them to drink milk into adulthood. Most of the rest of the world is lactose intolerant because they lack the mutation.

And honestly the only person I know that drank milk as a beverage was my wife when she was pregnant. Now that she's not, it's strictly for the kids.
