So they say milk is no longer good for you?

I love milk, too.  I drink lowfat 1/2%, and I ain't gonna stop.

I liked 2% milk. Been drinking it all my life. Used to it.  

I used to drink 2%, but then I tried 1/2% and realized I couldn't tell the difference, so I switched to that.

I see, Cool. I've tired 1% milk before don't really like it. but i'd drink sometimes.

I don't like milk. I only use it for cooking. I always thought, milk is good for you, but at the same time bad for you because of the calories and sugar.

This kind of thing changes so often. One week they'll tell you something is REALLY good for you, then the next week a new study says that it'll kill you. I think the key is just plain ol' moderation. If you don't have TOO much of it, it's likely not going to be TOO bad for you. And I'm not convinced that milk is bad for you. I'll keep right on sipping my moo-juice.

I agree, In all do respect I think parents would rather have children drinking milk then soda. that is very true indeed lisa. either am i.

Good point, Krissy.  

 In all honesty. I for a while didn't like drinking milk. Then when I changed brands of milk I started liking it again.

I've noticed there are some brands that taste a little... chalky.

True. I drink Natrel milk it taste much better then the regular 2% milk.

That's weird. On my news, the other day. They said, drink more milk 3 times a day. I love chocolate milk.

I don't like milk I only have it in tea.

That is weird how you get too different stories on milk. I would say maybe drinking too much chocolate milk is not good for you. I don't really agree with this. I like chocolate milk too. 

I recently switched from 1% to skim. I don't drink a lot of milk, usually have it more in things, but I don't mind it. Anything in moderation is my plan.

Ohok. That is true to that.

I have seen many reports about some saying it is good, some saying it is bad... like you guys said... moderation is the key!
I buy 2% milk. I only drink it when making a protein shake in the morning with milk or if I eat cereal, I use a little bit of it, I cannot drink it in a glass by itself. Don't like it that way lol - unless it's chocolate milk!  

I love chocolate milk.   Oh I see. 

I don't think we should let the news tell us what we are and what we are not to eat.


You eat what's best for you some say milk is good for you some say its not it changes everyday.


So I say if you like milk drink it and enjoy it and if you don't like it then don't drink it.

Yeah! 

I only have it in cereal. Or chocolate milk but I don't drink it very much at all. We drink skim. It tastes fine to me, like anything you get used to it after a while. Switched over to skim maybe 15 years or so ago when I started losing weight.
