Milk, water, milkfat, whey, milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate, sodium phosphate; contains less than 2% of: salt, calcium phosphate, lactic acid, sorbic acid as a preservative, sodium alginate, sodium citrate, enzymes, apocarotenal (color), annatto (color), and cheese culture.

The milk protein concentrate means Uncle Sam forbids it to be called a cheese. So it’s called a cheese something.
Ah, but overall annual global warming emission per gallon may be lower than for milk, due to cow flatulence factor. We need a proper net carbon/methane balance analysis, but I think beer will win.
I suspect that you may be able to sell carbon credits for beer consumption. Stranger arguments have been made after all. If you end up making money of this tip, you’re welcome !
Farmers face higher feed costs mostly because of government rules / regulations. Ethanol, made mostly from Corn in the US, is highly subsidized because it is an “alternative, renewable” fuel. Corn farmers get more money from ethanol corn than food corn. Hence, less food corn, causing less supply, increasing cost. Why do we have to go through this every time? The principle of supply and demand never changes.
Beer is probably healthier for adults anyway.”
When my daughter was pregnant she had a real problem keeping anything down during most of the nine months. Her OB-GYN did recommend that she drink one glass of beer every day. Seemed to do fine after that. Mom and baby, now 23, were fine. And no, it didn’t turn the baby into an alcoholic. As a matter of fact, he rarely drinks and doesn’t care much for beer.
wont this only affect “The Children” who eat three boxes of cereal a week?
I was in the Chinese countryside and saw NO cows - the countryside was white with ducks - a sea of white ducks. It is only this duck that is used to make Peking Duck. A guide told me the chef can take all the bones out of this particular type duck through a wing.
Milk prices here in Wisconsin have already jumped almost a dollar in the last couple months.
It has to be that Chinese cheese.
I noticed that here milk and gas are finally the same price.
For awhile, just recently, gas was cheaper than milk.
