Your approach is a distraction. If we were talking chocolate, would you enter the discussion with &quot;hey forget chocolate, eat carob.&quot;?<p>No. I like milk, as do billions of people. And discussing how to find and encourage quality of the milk, welfare of the cow, and protection of the environment via methods such as organic farming, is a worthwhile discussion.<p>As I mentioned in another reply, organic or not, I source my milk as locally as possible from dairy farms that process their own milk on site, and who run their farms with an emphasis on welfare of the animals and minimal environmental damage.<p>I wonder where that soy milk you mention comes from? Probably not down the road from my house. I actually did drink soy for a long time until I got sick of it, and lost trust in it.
