MilkYour First Taste Frank Doering
Origin • The Eomaia, 125 million years ago, China
Milk Producing Animals, Today • MOOOO Cow of course • Goat • Sheep • Camel • Water Buffalo • Yak
Milk is quite tremendous • Everyone’s first taste (before synthetic formula) • And what is up with that anyway? Formula…stupid • Despite a few things we have learned in this class about potential dangers, a mother’s breast milk is the best possible nutrients a baby can recieve
You’re only in danger when you’re drinking Monsanto’s Milk • Yes, Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin (rbST) • Marketed to farmers by Monsanto since 1994 Genetic engineering doesn’t stop there in dairy industry (farmer/scientist dudes are CLONING!!) Plus all the other genetic modifications that we have learned about (no animal food industry is safe anymore)
Lets Get Organic!!! • Its very possible, especially in Upper Midwest (that’s Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan • Dairy farms in midwest tend to be livestock-crop integrated and helping in the fight for sustainability • Way to go minnesota!
