Don't drink it. I stopped many years ago. I fart a lot less now. Milk is not good for you.

You are paying snob prices, even if you are buying organic at non-snob stores. Regular is still under $4 at Giant, and less than that at other stores.

Measurement of milk yield in the lactating rat from pup weight and weight gain.
Sampson DA, Jansen GR.
Abstract

A new method was developed that enables milk yield to be estimated from pup weight and pup weight gain in well-nourished rats. Daily milk yield, body weight, and daily weight gain were measured over 4-5-day periods in 38 suckling pups aged 3-13 days postpartum. Each 24-h period was divided into consecutive 6-h cycles, during which dams and pups were separated for 4 h and then reunited for 2-h suckling intervals. Daily milk yield per pup was calculated from pup weight gain during the four suckling intervals for each 24-h period, and corrected for insensible weight loss of the pups. The following equation, relating pup milk yield to pup weight and weight gain, was obtained by stepwise forward multiple regression analysis: yield = 0.0322 + 0.0667 (weight) + 0.877 (gain); where yield is daily yield per pup (g/pup/day), weight is pup weight (g), and gain is pup weight gain per day (g/day) (n = 174; F = 552.3; p less than 0.001; r2 = 0.866). Per litter milk yield can be obtained by multiplying per pup yield by litter size. Using this equation, dams fed a stock diet and nursing eight pups were estimated to have produced 29.5 ml of milk on day 10 of lactation. This value is similar to yields measured by more laborious methods. SEs of yield estimates calculated with this method represent 1-3% of predicted yield values. The new method gives useful estimates of rat milk yield during the first 2 weeks of lactation from measurements that are more easily obtained than is the case with other methods.

Bovine growth hormones and antibiotics were not in our milk in the 70s.

They are no present in organic milk, which is why it is so popular.

Though at over $7.00 a gallon it might become less popular quickly.

Drink beer, it's cheaper, better for you, and has secondary effects.

I only drink Tuscan Whole Milk, 1 Gallon, 128 fl oz

One should not be intimidated by Tuscan Whole Milk. Nor should one prejudge, despite the fact that Tuscan is non-vintage and comes in such large containers. Do not be fooled: this is not a jug milk. I always find it important to taste milk using high-quality stemware -- this is milk deserving of something better than a Flintstones plastic tumbler. One should pour just a small dollop and swirl it in the glass -- note the coating and look for clots or discoloration. And the color -- it should be opaque, and very, very white. Now, immerse your nose in the glass and take a whiff. Tuscan transports you instantly to scenic hill towns in central Italy (is that Montepulciano I detect?) --- there is the loamy clay, the green grass of summer days, the towering cypress. And those gentle hints of Italian flowers -- wild orchids, sunflowers, poppies. Then, one takes in the thick liquid and lets it roll across and under the tongue -- what is that? perhaps a hint of a nutty Edam cheese? With Tuscan, you feel the love of every dairyperson involved -- from the somewhat sad and deranged farmhand shovelling steaming cowpies to the bored union milk maiden dreaming of leaving this soul crushing life behind for a job waiting tables for obnoxious American tourists in Siena. But not too fast -- sip gently, slowly, or one is in danger of not only missing the subtleties of the milk's texture and its terroir, but -- if chilled too long -- also of giving oneself a blinding ice cream headache. Nay, savor the goodness that only dairymen and dairywomen working at the apex of their craft can deliver. Tuscan is best drunk young -- no, no, don't cellar this gem -- I guarantee you'll be sorry if you do. I recommend pairing with freshly baked macadamia nut scones. Milk Expectorator gives this one a 92.
