I recently got back from Mongolia, where I had a bunch of fresh dairy products from open-pastured cows.
One night in particular, I was given some warm milk to drink that made me feel just wonderful.
I have gone long periods of time without drinking milk, but since this trip I have been really attracted to it.
That milk from grass-fed cows sounds great. Some of those cows will probably be pent up and fed hay, but others probably get to openly pasture, and have a much healthier and happier life.
My friends from Vermont tell me that happy cows make the best milk.
Happy dogs make the best pets.
“Some of those cows will probably be pent up and fed hay...”
Hay is grass!
I do not doubt this, but how does one determine a cow is happy?
Sure, all those milk cartons show some dopey looking cow with a photoshopped smile, but really? They never seemed overly expressive, just eat and defecate.
