Some of those plastics are toxic and it seeps into the liquid; even water. Make sure it's a clear see through plastic. Supposed to be a number at the bottom that indicates the type.

Just don't drink milk, there are better ways to get calcium, other nutrients. Milk is so over rated

I don't disagree, although the other ways of getting calcium require huge intakes to get the needed amount. There's also other ways to contain it...like bottles or cartons.

I can only have milk 2 days a week anyway due to a sensitivity to it.

I just love real organic cream with peaches or berries in summer....and of course ice-cream. :(

That's funny. When I was a baby we did the goat milk thing too. Like you, I have no idea what it tasted like but I'm still alive.

Although I do have this desire to chew up my furniture and my balance is supurb. :)

Well, if it's true grain has gone up which is driving milk prices up then your Beer most likely is about to go up in price. Don't say I didn't warn ya'! But don't say I messed with it.

Most of the cost of brewing beer is the machinery and the water. Compared to growing cows, the inflation in grain prices has an insignificant effect. Beer will continue to be affordable:).

I don't understand why the prices would be higher in the midwest, as long as you buy two gallons you get 2% for 2 gal/$5.00 here at Albertsons or Stater Brothers

I still say that, in our most dire hour of need, the women of America need to take up their responsibilities, drop top, and save us from this outrage. Rosie the Riveter's got nothin' on Becky Breakfast Beverage.

Give me an effing break. Just because some wacko on teh intraweb said it doesn't make it true. My son was born in 1994, has drank milk all his life, and is still breastless. God you come up with some wacked out stuff.

Possibly because California is the leading dairy state in the nation? That may hold the price down in CA.
