Usually drink about 3L of the generic full cream stuff that Coles/Woolies sells.

Really like Canberra Milk Gold, though I'm not sure if they still sell it. That was some beautiful stuff.

My favourite used to be the two litre cartons of the unhomogenised organic from Paul's. They still do something similar in 1L cartons which I get sometimes but it's not the same.

>I was seeing glass unhomogenized stuff in supermarkets there

…and I gave it a go– but the cream was really not much different from just using butter in coffee, with the issh of not dispersing through the cup like it does with homomilk. And with hot tea, it was even worse taste-wise because of that.

>>40303

Where I live has a couple of local brands too, I guess with the supermarkets squeezing prices so much it becomes appealing to go independent and try to cater towards the minimal processing health-nut/old people niche.

I used to work in a deli and stocking these kinds of milk is a total pain in the ass. They had like a 2 week shelf life and we'd often receive bottles with less than 7 days left from the distributor, even if the milk was technically good according to the date, customers would often bring bottles back saying they were sour or lumpy 2-3 days before the use-by.

>tfw body stops producing lactase and milk makes you piss rusty water out your arse.

The worst part missing out on iced coffees.

Man, I miss glass bottles, and I sorta worry about all this milk consumption while it sits in plastic.

When we were kids (I'm in my 30s), it was all glass bottles. We would keep the red foil bottletop to hand in at school for some fundraising competition. Then the milkman would collect the glass bottles when you were done. Sometimes the milkman would give you free Moove stickers, and sometimes you'd get real lucky and get a just out of date chocolate milk for free.

We also had a breadman and a newspaper man.

When I moved to the city and told people about the milkman, breadman, newspaper man, they looked at me like I was a fucking idiot from the 1900s or something.

Fuck Melbourne and it's city folk, I hate it here.

i don't drink milk; shit is nasty, especially todays shit

>>40329

I'm 25 and grew up in bongistan. I remember having all that sort of stuff in the village I grew up in.

I miss having bottles of milk delivered to our house. There was just something so much more satisfying about drinking straight out of those glass pint bottles. It was also pretty fucking cool to think that the milk came from a cow only a mile away from me. In high school I'd sometimes walk home and stop by the dairy to get some of the ice-cream they made, shit was good.

I miss living in the country. I feel so lonely in the city, surrounded by people. I never felt lonely in the country. This feels weird, man.

I think I'll go to Foodland tomorrow and see if they have some unhomogenised milk in a glass bottle. Try and make myself feel at home.

Fuck, I can't believe that I forgot such a thing existed. It's all coming back now.

>>40360

Fuckin yes, I remember soft-drink-man. Based cunt gave me a free six pack of carton juice when I told him it was my birthday once.

Coles brand lite milk. It's cheap, low calorie and I only really add it to coffee.

I drink soy milk

Humans shouldn't drink cow milk

>>40417

>I am a human bean

>>40313

Nah I'm in New South Fails.

>>40417

Soy milk is a bit suspicious due to the fact that soybeans are sprayed with tons of pesticides along with the whole estrogen thing. If you're male you're sissifying yourself slowly by drinking it.

>>40432

>If you're male you're sissifying yourself

I think the soy milk drinker should post pics…

Soy milk tastes like baby powder and water.

>>40433

There was also the Bonsoy class action suit which occurred after a lot of people had their thyroids ruined by the stuff.

>>40417

Cow milk is really good for you and Soy milk contains estrogen so I will stick with cows milk.

>>40432

>soybeans are sprayed with tons of pesticides

Is every single soy bean crop sprayed with tons of pesticides?

>whole estrogen thing

That was bs though.

>>40433

I'm sure you all would find some part of my appearance to attack me on but I don't think it would have anything to do with soy. I don't have gyno and as I do a lot of exercise I've only become leaner and more toned since drinking it. Btw I rarely drink a glass of it, rather I put it on cereals.

>>40536

Cow milk contains hormones too dumb asss

>>40542

It does not contain estrogen or at least not in anywhere near as high of an amount. Milk also contains loads of nutrients.

>>40544

Neither does soy.

Everything has "loads of nutrients"

There are over 9000 ways to get your macro and micro nutrients. I'm suggesting milk is shit, not that soy is the only way.

Go suck on a cows tit you psycho

>>40545

How is milk 'sh*t' then? It is far better for you than soy milk.

And Soy milk does contain estrogen.

I've heard of that one anecdotal unique case before. It got republished fucking everywhere. I wonder why there haven't been any more cases like it documented?

I find it laughable that you'd attack soy beans for containing estrogen while recommending cows milk.

>The potential for risk is large. Natural estrogens are up to 100,000 times more potent than their environmental counterparts, such as the estrogen-like compounds in pesticides.

>"Among the routes of human exposure to estrogens, we are mostly concerned about cow's milk, which contains considerable amounts of female sex hormones," Ganmaa told her audience. Dairy, she added, accounts for 60 percent to 80 percent of estrogens consumed.

>Part of the problem seems to be milk from modern dairy farms, where cows are milked about 300 days a year. For much of that time, the cows are pregnant. The later in pregnancy a cow is, the more hormones appear in her milk.

>Milk from a cow in the late stage of pregnancy contains up to 33 times as much of a signature estrogen compound (estrone sulfate) than milk from a non-pregnant cow.

>One study compared diet and cancer rates in 42 counties. It showed that milk and cheese consumption are strongly correlated to the incidence of testicular cancer among men ages 20 to 39. Rates were highest in places like Switzerland and Denmark, where cheese is a national food, and lowest in Algeria and other countries where dairy is not so widely consumed.

>Cancer rates linked to dairy can change quickly, said Ganmaa. In the past 50 years in Japan, she said, rising rates of dairy consumption are linked with rising death rates from prostate cancer - from near zero per 100,000 five decades ago to 7 per 100,000 today.

>>40546

You're allowed to swear on the internet, my good fellow.

>>40552

I'm guessing he's a christcuck

I sort of enjoy a teaspoon of powdered milk once in a while. Dry.

>>40551

fuck

>>40551

>I've heard of that one anecdotal unique case before. It got republished fucking everywhere. I wonder why there haven't been any more cases like it documented?

Well their actually has. Admittedly it most often occurs from drinking a lot of it but it's still there and even drinking tons of milk does not cause this.

Also, you are stating in your argument that much of the estrogen in cows milk comes from pregnant cows still being milked and here is the thing, we don't milk the pregnant ones in this country.

As for your survey, surveys can be easily manipulated and there are also many more things at play that they do not account for. For example, It says the lowest is in Algeria but Algeria has a massively different diet than we do, they don't eat anywhere near as much processed food and they don't drink alcohol, both of which could easily effect things.

> In the past 50 years in Japan, she said, rising rates of dairy consumption are linked with rising death rates from prostate cancer - from near zero per 100,000 five decades ago to 7 per 100,000 today.

Again, it's not just dairy they are eating more of, they also eat more processed food and red meat, red meat was linked to prostate cancer just recently.

I found something intresting in your source as well.

>"The hormonal effects of milk are very new," said Ganmaa during questions from her Radcliffe audience. Until more research is done, she said, "I'd like to keep our heads low."

We have also been changing how we produce milk in the past few years particularly here and in the US, milk is all processed now to remove germs and stuff(which never needed doing and removes some of the nutrients too) and also in your very source she says how she gave Mongolians American milk and it increased levels of estrogen but that there Mongolian milk from before did no such thing.

Milk also has things like fat, calcium and protein that are quite good for you.

>>40420

Well would it make you a human cow otherwise?

>>40628

Ha. I had a girlfriend with F-cups once, and would refer to herself has a Human Cow..

I miss those boobies. Fuck her christian fundie parents.

OP is a successful Paul's shill. I ended up buying 1.5L of that Farmhouse Gold unhomogenised stuff and it is actually very nice.

>>40649

I fell for the shilling as well, and it was admittedly quite delicious.

Pauls is owned by international milk giant Lactalis (France).

Dairy Farmers is owned by Mitsubishi (Japan).

Support your local farmers instead.

I bought some Farmhouse Gold and had it with cocpops. I must say it did not taste good at all. Maybe it would have tasted nicer just drinking it though.

>>40637

if it wasn't for those meddling parents that'd be enough milk for all of us, there would be peace in this thread

>>40716

If you're used to pasteurized homogenized milk the less processed stuff tastes weird as fuck.
