New Question...

My new question for the week is one we can all talk about...and I'm pretty sure I already know the answer from some of you!


Is there really a difference between Organic & just plain Milk?


I have a really good friend at work that somehow convinced me that I should drink organic milk and that it would be better for the baby. My initial response was, my mom never drank organic milk and I turned out fine. She continued to send me articles and it grossed me out a little so I bought the organic stuff. On the other hand, I have a friend that has grown up around cows and knows a lot more about it than I do and you can imagine how different her opion is about the whole thing. She pointed out all of the rules and regulations that the milk goes through before its even allowed in the store.


What's a girl to do? Maybe I'll just alternate every time I go to the store. I'd love you hear your opinions!

i haven't been able to notice a difference in taste. The only thing I have observed is that the "best by..." date is much longer than typical milk. They give you about a month before it goes bad. That alone is worth it to me.

who keeps milk around for a month?

Hey Jen!
Why don't you send me some of the stuff so I can let you know the other side of what is going on...

I don't buy into all the "organic" hype! I know a lot of people are REALLY into it all, but I don't worry too much about it! It is really up to whatever you are comfortable with. . . plus, I doubt you are drinking that much everyday anyway! : )

Just for the record...I went to the store today and bought regular milk.

Jen,
Great to see things are going well. I finally figured out to scroll down on your site to read your comments. I've been checking on your status every week...so finally I can say "Hi!" On the organic stuff...I agree it is just confusing.. we drink regular. Ryder drinks about a gallon every few days...he is the healthiest one of us all...milk it does your body good.....
