MILK CONSUMPTION NOSEDIVES

[Guest guest]

From Robert Cohen:

--------------------------

 

Every day, thousands of people read this newsletter. Every day,

thousands of people send and re-send evidence containing the negative

aspects of milk to friends and family members.

 

Every day, I am heard on radio shows, and occasionally get an article

published in a newspaper or magazine. I frequently lecture and often

appear on television shows.

 

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and the

Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) and the Dairy

Education Board (DEB) together act as the antidotes to $500 million

dollars worth of dairy brainwashing efforts by empowering Americans to

explore a diet that does not include cow's milk products.

 

Every little bit helps to send a message to all people:

COW'S MILK DOES NOT DO THE BODY ANY GOOD.

 

Yesterday, the September issue of THE MILKWEED, a pro-dairy

newsletter/journal, arrived in my mailbox.

 

The headline of Issue No. 254:

 

" FLUID SALES NOSEDIVE DESPITE BIGGEST PROMOTION " (THE MILKWEED: P.O. Box

10, Brooklyn, Wisconsin 53521 $35 per year [12 issues])

 

That's right! The latest data from the USDA suggests that April-June

2000 milk sales declined 2.3%. Since the population of the United

States continues to grow (at a rate of 0.8% per year), fluid milk sales

must also increase to maintain the same rate of growth.

 

Data reveal that actual fluid milk consumption rates declined by 3.4%

from January to June 2000. The actual April data were so horrible

(suggesting a 6.6% decline) that USDA temporarily stopped reporting the

data (according to The MILKWEED).

 

What has been the response of the dairy industry?

 

They are spending an unprecedented amount of money marketing milk

mustache ads. Wherever I appear, the dairy industry does damage control

by placing more radio, television, and print ads. Have you noticed how

hard they are trying? It's just not working.

 

Milk prices continue to fall on the wholesale level, although retail

milk prices have not dropped. There is now a government (GAO)

investigation into why. With falling prices, and falling consumption,

dairy farmers continue to produce more milk. They do so by breeding

more cows and injecting their livestock with genetically engineered

hormones, which also increases milk production.

 

Americans have learned not to drink their pus with hormones and glue.

Not only is the thought of drinking bovine body fluids offensive to

one's sensibilities, but it just happens to taste awful. Kids know

this, and are now getting the TRUTH via the Internet.

 

We have been planting the seeds of the destruction of an industry, which

continues to brainwash Americans with their milk myths.

 

Every sip of milk contains virus, pus, bacteria, powerful growth

hormones, allergenic proteins, antibiotics, pesticides, fat,

cholesterol, and dioxins.

 

Eighty percent of milk protein is casein, the same glue used to hold a

label to a bottle of beer. There are 59 different hormones in every sip

of milk. FDA allows 750 million pus cells per liter of milk.

 

MY MANTRA (Repeat after me) Pus with hormones and glue...pus with

hormones and glue...pus with hormones and glue...
