Come on! I can’t be all coronavirus, all the time! Despite the pandemic. We need some comic relief.

Got Milk?
One of my favorite commercials is the one for Lactaid. You know, the one where the purported farmer explains that Lactaid comes from real cows. And, since folks try to claim it’s not real milk, those things around him have to be dogs…

Curds and Whey
I hadn’t realized this key fact about the production of Greek yoghurt. It produces far more waste than conventional yoghurt production. It takes 3 cups of milk to produce one cup of the product! (That’s about thrice as much as conventional yoghurt, which contains far more fluid than does the Greek version of the yoghurt.)

They VOTE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
They vote!! They vote?????
The last time I had such a nutty idea, I was in kindergarten.
But, the US Dairy Innovation Center surveyed American adults (yes, adults) only to find that 7% of those surveyed were certain that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. That’s 1 in 14 for those of you who are also numerically challenged.

Milking You For All You Are Worth?
Look, I enjoy great food as much as the next guy (or gal). No, wait. I am pretty sure I enjoy great food more than most. Which is why I really don’t like going to restaurants- because the food is generally mediocre, mislabeled, and overpriced.

Jeez, Abba, we can’t use this stuff at all!
Ah, yes, my eldest has come to visit and doesn’t approve of my fridge holdings. Because she, like so many others, doesn’t understand the markings imprinted on food packages.

Pumping?
I read the New York Times (and the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and the LA Times) ever day. This past weekend, I read a posting from Dr. Courtney Jung that pushed my buttons.

Breastfeeding has even more benefits for children
I’ve written about breastfeeding before- for example, it’s potential ability to preclude asthma in these breastfed children. Well, now, there seems to be another reason. Breastfed children may not develop ADHD [Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder].

Jumping Java?
Since I’ve been 15. Yup, while working at Arlee Cleaners, I was intimidated to switch from milk to drinking coffee. Of course, that was in New York, where “regular coffee” came equipped with a pound of sugar and a quart of milk. (OK, just two teaspoons of sugar and 25 ml of milk, in an 8 oz cup, but you get the idea.)

Got Milk (Subsidy)?
It’s always amazing to me when I hear certain politicians complaining about the waste in government spending, that our deficit is increasing. Like the past few days, of course. Not because I don’t think they are right- but because these are almost the same guys voting for stupid things- like a milk subsidy.
