I'm Such a Addict . . .

As a person who drinks nearly two gallons of milk per week, I was quite disturbed today after I followed Subtly Ironic Sean's link which led me, two clicks later, to a page about the evil corporations putting carcinogenic genetically engineered growth hormones into milk. In fact, I was so disturbed that I fixed myself a thoroughly water-based dinner with no milk at all.

But after 20 minutes of this I became terribly depressed by my desperate milk cravings and finally poured myself a tall glass of those yummy carcinogenic growth hormones anyway.

It was delicious.

careful...

ever wondered why teenaged girls' breasts are so HUGE nowadays?

you can indulge in hormone free milk, i think trader joe's sells it, and i know fresh fields does. it's worth it. It tastes better.
i can't consume dairy at all, dammit. i'm addicted to soy though, so it's ok. i get a total high of well being and good feeling when i eat soy products. go figure.

Does this mean that the mysterious Gayle is actually a teenage girl ? Or is it merely a diversionary tactic ? The plot thickens .... :)

it could also mean i was worried gayle might get manbreasts from all that hormone rich milk...

no, it means Gayle is a 25 year old of undetermined gender who does not have huge breasts . . .

it's a bitch isn't it? i'm still an addict admitedly, but my dairy intake goes down every day. and i do imagine it's possible to find ethical - non poisonous milk. it just might be kind of difficult.

monsanto is one of the world's most evil corporations.

LOL - they are rather tacky, aren't they?

I fell in love with a song of theirs one day when I was 12 . . . took me months to figure out who made it . . . it wasn't the music I liked, the music was quite dull and uninteresting, but the words for some reason just really spoke to me that day and I absolutely HAD to own it . . . so now like once or twice a year when I get terribly nostalgic for being 12 years old, I play that song.

The song is "Don't Answer Me".

I've never liked milk, to be honest. I'm mildly lactose-intolerant, not so much that I have to avoid all milk products, but drinking a glass of the stuff just isn't pleasant for me. Even when I was a baby, I didn't like milk. My mother had to wean me onto solids before I was a month old, to avoid me starving to death. (this was in the days before soya-milk).
