More than I can swallow

While I know that the founders are quite liberal. I'm not quite sure if they are ready for this. *wonders about new flavor names* |
Nup. Nup. Nup.
Not even gonna let myself think about it. |
PETA in it's full cry.
They are bizarre people. |

It's a failing of mine.

Given the amount of milk a cow produces compared to a human I can't help wondering how PETA thinks this is a practical solution. Surely the huge amount of money that would be spent buying off the lactating women could go some way to providing a better environment for the cows.
Organically produced milk from free-to-roam, grass-eating, happy cows would be a kinder milk to use than non-organic, and I would have thought that economically it would be a much more practical solution than using human milk :) |
They don't see it as practical. It's a mind game to draw attention to the cows.
|
I am trying to visualize this in production ... :)

Keeping abreast of the milking revolution?

Willing to lend a hand, or two.

Yes, it tugs at the heart-strings and other things.

:roflmao:
it took me about 15-20 minutes to pump about 8 or 9 ounces. 1 qt of good ice-cream takes about 40 oz milk and cream. at US min wage (5.85/hr) that would mean about, what? a little less than 15 bucks or so, just in milking time. (fyi, i suck at math.:p that might be off) plus the commodity cost. OMG! would it be a commodity? will we trade in mammary glands? lmao. of course, let down takes at least and hour between pumpings so add on another several hours of idle pay, and diet is important (and regulated by the dept of ag, i believe) so add on a decent per diem for nutritious food. and drug testing. man, these costs are gonna trickle down that's some pricey milk. we should outsource. |
I'm pretty damned liberal, but PETA annoys the ever living crap out me.

I was at one point co director for a Breed specific rescue organization, I gentled and trained both my horses, rarely use a saddle, don't own a bit for either my mare or my stallion, but I eat meat, I use leather, I feed most of my dogs meat based food as well as my cats (two of whom are declawed)
I kinda start out sounding like someone that would be PETA friendly. If I could rid the world of peta support in one intellectual swoop I would. Human teats to the test! This is udderly ridiculous. |
*snorts*
