Another contributing factor, perhaps a penny a gallon, milk is going up so high is because plastics have risen, so those containers are up too.

I've been paying $5 a gallon for over a year now for organic milk. Not my choice but hey, you pick your fights. Me spending $3K a year on Chief tickets ain't her cup of tea either.

Well, you could just do the Sally Fields thang when you get old and take BONiva.

It's $5.29/gallon.

What cracks me up, is they charge 3.5/doz for "organic" eggs and get it here.

Then I explain how my Chickens live, and they say, can I have some. 2.50/doz. lol. An egg is an egg folks, it is still squirted out the Chickens butt.

I can't tell the difference between an organic egg and a non-organic egg but i can tell the difference in milk. There is a big taste difference.

ROFL What do you expect, he is a Hog Farmer.


Hog farmer, did the farmers withhold meat from the market this season, or did they go ahead and produce it, only to have wal mart screw them once it is processed?

People need to know that a pound of bacon has to go up10 to 25 % as a result of the increase in feeder corn.

Of course, if you want some melamine tainted pork, we can keep the cost of sausage down for you hy-top brand pork buyers.

When I was a baby, goat's milk is all my parents could get me to drink for a while. We had a neighbor a mile or so away that had several goats. I can't say I've drank any since I was a baby, so I couldn't really tell you how it tastes. I'm not exactly normal, so I'm still undecided as to whether it's good for you..

Heck! Guess I should take the old industrial milk pump out of the attic and start nursing my 13 year old again. Wonder if it will still work!

Women unite and boycott commercial milk! :p

Same story I heard from the O'Fallon Brewery guys about glass costs for Beer.

But AB Miller, etc can leverage by volume.....

I HATE BIG BEER.

Well it's worth the extra dough, especially since that human growth hormone is being used since about 1993/94. You don't want your little girl,or boy for that matter, getting breasts at age 6 now do you?

Milk isn't even authentic milk anymore...and has losts its health benefits.
