    The problem with beer is that it contains alcohol, which is a substance I'm trying to avoid right now. :) -- Arigato gozaimashita!

      I've read that as you get older, milk is bad for you, as the calcium will just clog everything up. So, do anyone of you have a good suggestion for milk substitutes? Juice is good, but it's kind of expensive compared to milk, and sodas are out of the question. Water's nice, but it's a bit boring to drink every day with every meal. -- Arigato gozaimashita!

              I would have to agree with you on the organic front. If I could afford it I'd buy more organic produce - but it is more expensive.

                          The dairy and meat industry are quite regulated here in Sweden, so I hope I'm on the safe side. It's funny you mention how farmers put all kinds of weird stuff into the cow food. It sort of proves the point of Joseph Schumpeter[^]. Capitalism requires growth in production. Growth requires any means neccesary (or so it seems). The customer who drives the demand gets hurt in the process. -- Arigato gozaimashita!

                              Are you delusional? Milk is a great source of calcium, vitamin D, and protein. I think you have been reading too many websites by paranoid schizophrenics.

                                  My family manages to go through a little over that amount. I drink maybe a glass or two a week. I blame it all on the others (there's my mom, dad, and 4 younger brothers). I get a crapload of calcium (and other good stuff) from the Jamba Juice I drink regularly (like, every day). :)

                                    It's too bad you guys don't have Jamba Juice. This stuff rocks. I always get one right after lunch on weekdays. (There's a Jamba Juice right up the street from my office.) :-D

                                      I drink water six days a week with the only change being "cheat day". Of course that also includes the protein powder a couple of times a day. On cheat day, I typically stick to as many coca-colas as I down in one day :) Krista drinks soy milk because she can't have too much animal protein. Cheers, Tom Archer "Use what talents you possess.

                                          I've read that as you get older, milk is bad for you, as the calcium will just clog everything up. So, do anyone of you have a good suggestion for milk substitutes? Juice is good, but it's kind of expensive compared to milk, and sodas are out of the question. Water's nice, but it's a bit boring to drink every day with every meal. -- Arigato gozaimashita!
