i’m actually not upset by this in the least, this is exactly the kind of bullshit a Congressman is supposed to get up to for his district… we should be arguing over whether chocolate milk is really healthy, and not whether we should have laws and a government…
But it isn’t. We know it isn’t. There’s no debate to be had. We were lied to by a relentless dairy industry that lobbied Congress in to making sure we were all told more milk all the time and as it turns out, at best milk has no benefits at all, and may be slightly bad for you. And flavored milks are just fucking loaded with sugar. But see the sugar industry also did some lobbying and 60 years ago some idiot congressmen were convinced that dietary fat is the problem so they started taking the fat out of foods and replacing it with sugar. And lo and behold diabetes went from a rare, 1 in 10,000 adults to fucking 1 in 10.
The US population is fat, sick, and dying younger than the previous generation, and it’s due in part to assholes like this.
No one is fetishizing anything. Just stating facts. You’re the one being hyperbolic.
First you tried to say kids don’t need protein then that milk wasn’t good protein and now that I’m too focused on the liquid form. You sound unhinged and pedantic. Just let the kids drink their milk and stop politicizing it.
Ask any kid if they want to have a glass of cold milk and most will eagerly say yes.
The cost per ounce for the macros you get from milk makes it one of the best foods you can give to kids for the least amount of money. If solving childhood hunger comes into the equation at all the economies of milk make it a no brainier.

good, tell him not me
You’re a fucking lying idiot. Milk has a great macro split and tons of good protein. It is great for kids.
'murican being 'murican.
Ok name another drink that has 1 gm of protein per 1oz of liquid. Go ahead I’ll wait.
Why the fuck would you want that?
Are you fucking stupid? Growing kids need tons of all 3 macros. Milk is the best source of protein many of these kids will see all day!
You’re an idiot if u can’t see why kids need protein.
My brother in Hades, there are so many other viable sources of protein. Why are you fetishising drinking it? Just eat some beans and meat.
