Milk $6

The Oregon-Washington border doesn't have Homeland Security / ICE / CPB interviews and ID requirements and potential inspections and long waiting lines.

Lactose intolerance is considerably less common in people of Northern European ancestry, where the bovine dairy culture was created.

I thought that American adults who are lactose intolerant, generally know it. Using world-majority lactose intolerance as a reason to portray milk consumption as unethical even for those who can digest it, is simply over the top. I was more concerned about school lunch programs that used to demand students drink milk 'for their health', regardless of genetic and cultural realities, back when many white school administrators didn't understand that many of their minority students, especially the older ones, were lactose intolerant.

I have been mild-moderately lactose intolerant since my mid-20s, but have had little difficulty adapting.

 

That's interesting... I wasn't aware that all Canadians had a rich daddy that gave their son several million dollars to start out and then tell everyone that he was a self-made man. Just for kicks and giggles; you should ask them: Is Trump more like Homer on The Simpsons or Peter on The Family Guy.

FWIW; daddy's connections also got him out of the Vietnam draft.

 

Awww; that's nothing - I remember seeing people throwing elbows and wrestling for stuff on those after X-mas and Black Friday sales. Pre-COVID and before Amazon was the norm.

They shall NOT be deterred from a bargain......

 

$1.85ltr AUD for long life Lactose Free milk, became lactose intolerant after having my gallbladder removed due to a miss diagnosis, the problem was actually an ulcerated oesophagus as a result of taking anti inflammatory medications for far too long .... yet another medical stuff up.

Between my wife and I, we go through 2 ltr/day, turned 70 in June so not even the doctors or a very serious motor vehicle accident could kill me ...... must be the milk ..... with the lactose free stuff, no longer have sugar in my coffee, and I drink a lot of coffee, proper stuff, not that free dried rubbish.

I do feel for those getting bled dry financially over there ..... I bet you get out there and vote next time

Nothing but skim for me, but I drink a lot of it. That, along with fat-free cheese, no sugar added, fat free yoghurt, peanut butter and egg-white is almost the entirety of my protein consumption. (I will eat some poultry and fish occasionally, and turkey at Thanksgiving). I'm pretty sure RFK wouldn't approve of the elimination of some of the components from natural products, but it works for me. I also drink a lot of diet soda, not recommended, I know, but I believe that is only because of the Snackwell effect. With no consumption of refined sugar, diet soda does nothing. I actually ordered a glucose monitor online after a doctor had told me years ago (falsely, I believe) that I was pre-diabetic. Nothing I consumed spiked my blood sugar, and even exercising on an empty stomach did not reduce my blood sugar to a level that would raise an alarm. During my most recent check-up, and the one before that, there was no indication of diabetes. (Probably I should attribute more of that to having no family history of the disease than my diet and life-style).

In Seattle during baseball season when the Toronto Blue Jays come to town all the Canadians flood over the border and take over the stadium. That didn't happen at all this year.

And it all comes down to our nation's highest priority being the corrupting of the minds of voters with xenophobic hatred that costs us a viable economy, as well as all our trading partners. And you can't fix this level of stupid. You have to throw it all out and start over with the next generation of politicians!

 

To bwilson OP: hey you should try shopping on my island -- at Target (oddly some of the best grocery prices here) it's $6.49 for the barrel-bottom-brand gallon [SunHearth], $8 if you want locally-sourced but not organic [MeadowGold], and $14.40l, for 1% organic (not sold in gallon jugs, only halves @ $7.19 per [Horizon]).

May get slightly better prices at Wally's... but one gets what they get there -- incl'g expired stock being sold as good until you challenge them 45 mins; leaking w/ seals-broken-by-homeless containers; and general apathy towards answering any and all questions you may have about products or their provenance -- incl'g when the last health inspection was. Where it is on the shelf? Oh there, sir. Do you know this product is expired / opened / damaged / not allowed sold in the County? crickets

Eff that nonsense. Sorta glad I'm lactose-intolerant, tbh

 

I had understood that most Blue Jays' fans stayed home for the regular season games, but then did show up in Seattle for the playoffs when it counted the most.

 

i'm eager to see what florida will be like this winter. it's generally packed with canadians, so it should be fairly obvious if they aren't there en masse

 

Hiding the massive economic disasters of the current administration won't last much longer... They've set back our nation's economy for decades to come!
