It's not the lactose - I just have trouble with rich foods since having my gall bladder removed. 

Everyone in my family is lactose TOLERANT.  But we've always eaten a wide variety of meats, starches, veggies, fruits and dairy.

At one point, we had "neighbors" (5 miles or so away) that milked their cows, pasteurized the milk, but no homogenization, and it was FABULOUS!!!  The cream would come to the top of your glass, and the taste was DIVINE!

<~ STFU'ing

Tell me more of this "milk" of which you speak...

Cream? From milk? Not possible!

If industrial dairy and beef farmers weren't shooting chemical shit into the cows this wouldn't be a problem.

OK I'm going to go burn some barns. See ya.

Not the Rape Barn...

Liquor Barn already had that fate...

You just made me cry. You'll pay for this...

One time only, I had unprocessed milk that was still warm from the cow's body.  It tasted great - nothing at all like what you can buy in the grocery store.

EXACTLY!  How they can call store stuff "milk" is beyond me!

And if you raise your own milch cow, YOU have complete control of what she eats and drinks, so added hormones and such aren't a problem.

If I were to raise my own milk cow, I'd actually be raising my own steak cow for my dogs.

Hey, if you butcher her calf as soon as it begins weaning, VOILA!  Veal on the half-shell!  Some plenty good eating THERE, for you AND your dogs.

Yeah, um... I kinda meant that there aren't very many creatures that would survive in my (big enough for my pack of dogs but not exactly farm-size) yard with my wild pack of family dogs.

BOLD = if you get this reference without looking it up, you rule.

Dude, for real?  This goes in the burn thread...
