In the old days they let a cow or goat, have a calf and then humans partook of that milk. Plus the animal was allowed to graze. Now they confine the animal, and feed it very strange stuff, and as it gets diseased, they begin to pump it full of antibiotics. Then they figured out if you pump it full of hormones, it gives more milk. Now the animal is stressed and begins to manufacture white blood cells which is added to the volume of milk produced. So, better to let nature provide the milk.

People also forget that milk is NOT supposed to be white.

Many stores sell organic milk, allegedly free of hormones and other additives,
that got rave reviews from some Freepers on past threads.
Oh, and it's all Bush's fault.
