Interesting to read the (longer) list of possible harms below.

30-50 million Americans are lactose intolerant, yet your government pushes milk on you as if you were, well, cows.

dairy companies actually send elementary schools free food pyramid posters that have milk as an essential part, which seems a little ridiculous to me considering the aforementioned lack of evidence of real tangible benefits of milk.

3.2% laciate till I die

Gettem while they're young and that sort of thing.

I think this thread is kind of proving that it works.

Edit: just realised what a massive necro this was, gawd i'm slow

2 cups of milk a day

Corporations from all industries run Washington. I think the great milk conspiracy is the least of your issues.

soy milk tastes really good like melted icecream
1% is good too

food pyramid is bullshit but milk and dairy in general can still be great
if entire european ethnicities could historically live on cow milk, so can you!!!

different ethnic groups strive on different diets. you can read about it here. (it's got pictures!)

tldr whatever you do don't eat processed foods

To be honest, they put way too much sugar in milk because pure cow milk probably tastes like shit. If you are trying to lose weight, a better alternative would be almond milk.

There's a wide range of lactose tolerance and usually children are producing enough lactase to regularly consume milk and dairy, which is good for them. I'd rather have my schools advertise milk over the processed food from vending machines any day

I could live on chocolate milk and whole milk tastes good too

if you're trying to lose weight drink coke zero

milk is grosse

are you drinking %1 because you think you're fat?
cause you're not
you could be drinking whole if you wanted to

fresh cow milk actually tastes really good

FTFY

good luck with that in america

if you're fat because of soda, you probably don't want to drink just water
switching to a low/zero calorie soda can easily cut 3-1100 calories a day from your diet.

just stop

just drink water jeeez

please explain why

He has a good point. Sugared drinks like soda, vitamin water, and juices can put a ton of empty calories into your diet. Switching to sugar-free diet drinks and/or water can save hundreds of calories. Plus your dentist will thank you.

I really like chocolate milk if that counts. Fresh normal milk is always good too, though I mostly drink it with my cereal.

Honestly, I would rather drink a sugar soda rather than one that's Diet. I don't trust that sucralose stuff man. Would you REALLY want to drink something that's been chlorinated?

An organic compound that has chlorine in it isn't "chlorinated" especially not in the sense of a pool being chlorinated which I assume is the dumb comparison your brain immediately leapt to.

On topic 1% milk is god damned delicious I don't care if it has a lot of health benefits i'm going to enjoy my lactose tolerance white privilege is the best.

Whole milk is even more delicious but its kind of too rich and creamy to just drink a glass of the stuff. I grew up in a rural area and had some friends who lived on farms and let me tell you putting fresh milk on your cereal is pretty much the greatest thing.

guess anything with salt in it is chlorinated too

have u ever drank pool water dude it sucks

Any milk that you can buy in a supermarket (1%, 2%, whole milk) is pasteurized. The enzymes made inactive by pasteurization aren't needed in digestion nor are they important to human health.

I prefer my milk to be garlged by aryans and cost $100 a fluid oz.

Y is this really a thread

holy shit someone else that thinks food is chlorinated. I knew a german once who thought that we put chlorine in our meat in the US
