I find it weird because I have seen a camel, and would definitely not think that milk would come out of that thing. (sorry). havent tried it, but if its commercially sold, i might as well give it a try. We have camel milk being sold in groceries here in my part of the world (Dubai).

I alone drink a quart or two every day. I just couldn't go a meal without my milk--usually chocolate, always skim. I wonder if I'm the only one here who uses powdered milk. Sometimes I hear people say they can't stand the stuff, but it tastes exactly like skim milk bought in the gallons, so I think the people who really have a problem with it are the ones who are used to drinking milk with a higher fat content.

It's my favorite milk substitute, perfect in coffee or tea and cereal. The only downside is that it is too rich to drink more than a small glass at a time. Try hazelnut “milk” if you can find it.

It's my favorite. I drink milk more than anything else, except water. I've been like that since I was a child. I also love soy milk! And ice cream, and cheese.. and just about anything dairy. :) Whole milk rocks! It’s my favorite. I drink milk more than anything else, except water. I’ve been like that since I was a child.

If you dont believe you need calcium, then you have obviously never heard of osteoporosis or tetany. Besides the health benefits, there is nothing better than a nice bowl of cereal.

Our milk was direct from the cow, chilled it its serving container in the milk house by ice cold spring water. Best ever and no I did not get sick because it wasn't processed.

Is it just different levels of separation? I don’t actually drink milk, but I’ve always wondered how they make the different types of milk (e.g. lactose free, skim, 1%, etc.).

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 03:00:00 +0000 http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/26319#comment-146683 I go through at least a half gallon of milk a week. It's for coffee, it's for putting on my cereal. The odd glass of chocolate milk, or the odd protein shake also, sometimes. Weirdly, I drink more milk when it's skim- it's kinda like water at that point, I guess.
