A Dairy Discussion

Many disagreements arise when the topic of dairy comes up. I will be the first to admit that I love and have always loved cheese. Giving up cheese might possibly be the most difficult thing I ever give up when it comes to food. But let me set the record straight: I have not been a huge consumer of eggs and dairy since becoming a vegetarian 20 years ago. I think milk is disgusting and completely unnecessary; I opt for soy milk or rice milk instead. Eggs? I do not seek them, but they happen to be in a lot of foods we eat.

I don't want to argue with people about the way I choose to eat. I do what I do, you do what you do. No matter what they say, I will always know dairy is not healthy, nor is it necessary to our diet. I would like to share an article entitled Health Concerns about Dairy Products published by PCRM that may help answer questions you might have about dairy. I am not preaching, just sharing. Thanks for reading! :)
