Goat's milk

Post Reply New Topic

I finally got up enough courage to try some goat's milk. All sorts of things were going through my mind about how nasty it will taste. So I took a small sip and too my surprise goat's milk is WOW, DELICIOUS! It is so much better than cow milk and if I can get it all the time I would never drink cow milk again.

I've already downed 2 glasses of goat's milk. I know that carton won't even last until tomorrow evening. The best part is that the carton I bought today doesn't have additives and that other junk in it.

So, my question is, how many of you do you drink goat's milk and how did you react to it before you took that first drink and found there was a real WOW factor.

I did - much better than a cow's one I don't know why anyone would feel disgusted by the perspective of drinking goats' milk

I guess for the same reason some people would feel disgusted by the pespective of eating insects. This sounds disgusting too, but if I ever tried chocolate covered ants or fried grasshoppers, I may actually like them.

But that's not the same, in our culture we don't eat insects, while milk, regardless of what animal it is from, is drunk.

I'm not hear to debate you. And yes it is the same. And you are wrong. A lot of people in the USA eat insects. My brother when he was still alive eat fried grasshoppers and chocolate covered ants. And there are a hand full of restaurants in the USA serve insects.

And besides you are in Poland not the USA.

Not a lot, just a small fraction of the USA society and I bet most of those are immigrants from countries, in which they are eaten. Almost everybody from our culture gets disgusted by the possibility of consuming insects, while most people drink milk and even if there are people who can't digest milk or dairy products as such, milk as such isn't associated by anyone with the feeling of disgust - one can have stomach problems after drinking it or just not like milk, but only a small group of folks think drinking milk is disgusting.

A better analogy would be that people who would be afraid to try goat's milk are probably the same type of people who would be afraid to eat venison (deer meat). My brother used to hunt and bring home deer, and we'd go to the butcher to have it prepared, and we'd eat it for months afterwards. Venison is the best meat that I've ever eaten, and I wish that my brother still liked to hunt so that I could eat it every year. Our older sister, however, never tried it because she didn't trust anything that didn't come from the store, which is pretty backwards if you think about the kind of conditions that cows live in before being slaughtered vs. eating meat from a wild, free-range animal.

Again, no one thinks twice about eating from a cow, but anything more uncommon can cause people to hesitate.
