Nay Emamum
The cows of today were bred purposely to produce milk long after their offspring had ceased suckling.
If you want to be really pedantic what food product, that swims, runs, fly's or grows out of the ground is for the use of mankind.

Humans took advantage of what was available and killed it or cultivated it to survive. A vicar looking at my garden said isn't God wonderfull, my reply to that was you should have seen it before I took over, it was a right mess.

If milk is bad for you what does rump steak do?

i didnt say it was bad for us, i said it wasnt designed for us....

sorry margaret, that may have been my fault

back on topic, i'm allergic to cows milk unless i'm pregnant, i get stomach cramps and vmitting if i have to much, im used to it now and can gauge when ive had enough and tbh i'd rather have a delicious cheesecake (sparkie

) and a bit of a tummy upset than go without

.. it doesn't sound like an allergy to me. Allergies are life threatening and this isn't. It sounds like an intolerance to lactose to me, this is just one of the irritations of life !!

I think the problem today is far more people suffer from allergies than ever before, mainly because of all the additives used in processing. Dairy products such as milk are one of the main trigger factors in asthma, but unfortunately due to modern day living there are many many trigger factors for that particularly disorders than say 50 years ago, when I was growin up, I didn't start with asthma until I was 34 although I always had a weak chest due to the fact I had pneumonia when I was 6 months old

I got the information from my surgeon. And I've had the surgery. Didn't hurt a bit; slept right through it. Now I drink skim milk (or sometimes1%) or soy milk. Comes in several flavors, and doesn't taste all that bad. And now I read labels. Whenever I feel like pigging out on things I shouldn't eat, I remember (vaguely) those 4 days in the ICU, when all I got was slivers of ice, and whatever went through the tubes.

And for our friends south of the border: it was all free.
