Do you drink milk?

[DontSayBanana]

Egg nog's great, especially with a fifth of bourbon whiskey mixed in.

I tend not to drink milk much, per se; I'm very mildly lactose intolerant (I can deal with milk as an ingredient, but I can't really drink the stuff more than once in a blue moon).

Every day few glasses. In Germany, I can't find skimmed milk, so I've had to cut down on it. Even their low fat milk has 1.5%. Also, sometimes there's only sweet UHT milk available.

Finns are the milk-drinkiest Nation on Earth; here's a site with a table with numbers from 2006:

No. It's unnatural. Mammals are not made to consume milk after weaning.

For those that persist, I have two words for you. Cow tits. Cow tits, cow tits, cow tits.

We're not meant to eat chocolate, wear clothes or drink booze either.

I'm not sure I've had any milk in almost 2 years.  I drink lots of yogurt though.

Never having heard of chess pie seems odd to me. I can understand Buttermilk, as that's less popular.

It is definitely a Southern thing, Lettuce.  Most Yankees have never eaten or even heard of it.  I only knew what it was prior to moving to Kentucky because I have family in Atlanta and my great aunt makes it.  I've never once seen it for sale or on a menu in Boston or Philadelphia.

Cal would love a tres leche cake.

Skim milk, every day. Sometimes I put a packet of splenda in a glass, but mostly I just have it with cereal.

I've had it numerous times.

I really only use milk on hot or cold cereal, which is most breakfasts for me. So I get a decent helping of milk. I sometimes drink it but I use something like Ovaltine or other light mixer. I rarely drink just a glass of milk. I use Smartbalance 0% milk, which I think tastes quite good along with the low fat. Otherwise I'll use another brand of 1% or 2% fat.

I've recently picked back up the milk-drinking habit after taking about a decade off.  My mother would always insist on drinking milk as a crucial health measure, but I always thought it was kind of disgusting and rebelled.  Now I feel like it gives me some kind of special vitality.

Do you drink it?  Whole, 2%, 1%, or skimmed?   I am under the impression that Americans love drinking milk more than any other nation.  Is this true?

I usually drink 2%.  Whole is a nice treat but a little too rich.  But I strongly prefer half-and-half or even light cream in my coffee; whole is as far down the chain as I will go for coffee.  <2% just makes it too cold, watery, and grey.

I drink milk, 2% usually.  Can't stand 1% or skimmed.  But I might have to try the 1%, for diet purposes.

But I sure don't put milk in my coffee.  Totally disgusting.  A coffee is black or it's no coffee at all dammit.

No lactose 1,5%. 3% tastes better, but it's not lactose free.

I find this to be a highly intolerant statement.  Let girly men drink coffee however they like it.

And you call yourself a northerner. Man up and face the gas, crippling abdominal pains, and public embarrassment.

[Malthus]

No. It's unnatural. Mammals are not made to consume milk after weaning.

For those that persist, I have two words for you. Cow tits. Cow tits, cow tits, cow tits.

You think that would dissuade the likes of Cal?

I'm sure she considers me to be a write-off.
