Back to McD's lets throw out the calories and fat and talk QUALITY. you really really need to watch this film and then come back to me and say you still want to eat McD's. I think you will end up choosing the 1k calorie bathroom scum over McD's after watching this.

At this point I feel like I am talking to a 60 year old smoker how refuses to believe cigarette smoke is bad for him and insist that everyone of his grandparents from WV lived to 100 and smoked every day so it can't be bad for me. |
I watch less movies then anyone i know my age, but i wouldnt mind watching this. But i doubt it will be anytime soon.
Also on a personal note i dont drink milk. I used to put down a good gallon to 2 gallons of vitamin d a week, up until about 3-5 years ago. Then one day i started thinking about milk production and read into it. I think something like 80-90 percent of all commercial milking cows are pregnant at the time they are giving milk. Then you mix thousands of cows milk together so you get a very high percentage of high pregnancy hormone cows milk. It just doesnt sit well with me, especially with the amount i was drinking. Plus the idea of consuming another animals bodily fluids doesnt sit well with me.
I switch to vanilla flavored soy milk and was putting down at least 2 gallons a week of it (taste great and also refreshing), when a roommate asked if i thought all that soy was good for me.... So i looked it up and soy is extremely high in estrogen, which is very difficult for the male body to break down. There are a potential side affects from males ingesting too much estrogen, including man boobs. Also there is some speculation on high estrogen foods on young kids, that parents may want to look into. Either way like milk i gave soy up cold turkey.
The i looked into raw milk. There are a lot a odd laws when it comes to milk in most states, i think mainly because of dairy lobbyist. But you can do something in VA called cowsharing. You buy a share of a cow and are entitled to a share of the milk it produces. You get pure raw cow milk, which is supposed to be absolutely delicious. I didnt do it because its pretty expensive (as bad as my organic soy milk habbit), but its also not all that liquid (pun intended!) - you cant really sell your cow share very easily. Also if you cow dies, so does your share. But if you cow gives birth you are entitled to part of the calf.
So now i do almond milk vanilla flavored. Its great with cereal but i cant suck it down like i could milk or soy milk, I probably do a half gallon a week. Not sure where i was going with all this..... just part of my daily struggles i guess.
