Got Milk? — Poll
We grew up on Dairy farms, milked cows and breastfed our children. We currently milk goats when they’re producing and otherwise buy pasteurized milk at the store, but have bought many gallons of raw milk when available. Feel free to comment and enjoy.

Re: Got Milk? — Poll
The poll is too restrictive; you can only select three options.
We do all of the following depending on the situation.
Buy pasteurized milk
Buy raw milk
Feed Babies milk
Feed Babies formula
Breastfeed babies
Raw milk is our favorite drink and we have a good source (my store) , but we also use pasteurized.

Re: Got Milk? — Poll
Milk is my favorite drink but I am lactose intolerant. Interestingly raw milk doesn't cause me problems but it is illegal to sell in Canada... and even though I bought it before I am uncomfortable influencing others to break the law so I can avoid stomach aches and so I don't buy it anymore. For now I avoid pasteurized milk too but one day I would like to have goats so I can have good raw milk again.
All our children were breastfed until we had issues with our last child and formula was required to keep him growing and alive.

FWIW — I tried to change it to allow up to 5 choices; I hope it works.

Have you tried almond milk? In my opinion it's one of the better milk substitutes.Wade wrote:Milk is my favorite drink but I am lactose intolerant.

I have and it's okay kind of. Unfortunately it is extremely expensive in comparison here, so I've stopped buying it and settle for water and tea, of which I sometimes add a little of our homemade grape juice in for flavor.mike wrote:Have you tried almond milk?

Re: Got Milk? — Poll
We sell Guernsey milk in our store and many people that are otherwise lactose intolerant find they can drink it. Apparently it is missing one ingredient that is found in most milks.
I grew up on raw milk. Now I really do not like the taste anymore and prefer my milk coming in bags.
And yes my wife normally breastfed our children up till about 3 months.

Re: Got Milk? — Poll
I live on a dairy farm and am familiar with how clean and safe it is, so I drink our own milk. I would frankly avoid raw milk otherwise unless I could really vet the supply chain.
I do really like Guernsey breed milk and a local dairy sells it by the half gallon (Paint Valley Farms).

Re: Got Milk? — Poll
We grew up drinking raw cows milk.
Our babies were breastfed, but had intolerance's to some of the foods I ate. Dairy being one of them. They were 2 before they could handle dairy. 2 of our children are lactose intolerant now as teenagers.
We now have goats and use goats milk when they are milking and buy cows milk when they aren't. Sometimes raw milk from the farm & sometimes pasteurized from the store.
You can make your own almond milk by putting the almonds & hot water in the blender. Blend several times and then strain. Use the almond meal that is left in baking or cooking.
I personally don't like drinking plain milk. Chocolate milk, yes.
