I did not know that Kroger has some of the cheaper milk.  I recently paid $3.98 for a gallon of milk at CVS pharmacy.  I thought the milk was a little pricey, but I was in a hurry and trying to get to work.  Since, CVS was close to my house and saved me some time, I bought the milk.  Yet, I was glad when a found milk at a local supermarket for $2.88.  But, Kroger's $2.50 milk sounds even better.

We try to buy milk when it is on sale. Then i pour out , oh maybe a cup and a half into a jar and then freeze the rest of it. It saves a lot. Milk is about $4 a gallon here. And we have a lot of dairys in out state. But with draught and the cost of fuel getting feed in, it is going to go up. You can't blame the dairy men for it. Of course the high cost of fuel has hurt everyone.  Some dairies are haveing feed shipped in all the way from Canada and we are in N.M. and with the cost of diesel wow.

We don't drink much milk anymore but my youngest granddaughter is allergic to milk so she has to drink the lactaid milk which is over $3.00 at Walmart.  I keep her during the day when her parents are working and sometimes I buy her milk.  If reg. milk goes to $7.00 bet her milk would be really high.  Don't see how most people can handle much higher food prices;  I know my husband and I can't.

I heard about this too.  I certainly hope that's not the case - we're in enough trouble money wise in this country without something like that to make things worse for everyone.

Between gas and milk I won't be able to afford to drive to the store anyway...  >:(
Hopefully that won't actually happen.

We don't have that problems because we do not drink milk.  Asuggestion.  Switch to Almond Milk.  It's not near as expensive and is much better for the body.  Nut milk is especially good in coffee, and can be used for cooking and baking as well.  We buy almond milk from the health food store.  Blue Diamond is the brand.

Mainstream milk is FULL of anti-biotics and steroids.  Genetically engineered bovine growth hormone.

"Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, a mitogenic and antiapoptotic peptide, can affect the proliferation of breast epithelial cells, and is thought to have a role in breast cancer."

The Lancet, vol. 351. May 9, 1998

"The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system is widely involved in human carcinogenesis. A significant association between high circulating IGF-I concentrations and an increased risk of lung, colon, prostate and pre-menopausal breast cancer has recently been reported. Lowering plasma IGF-I may thus represent an attractive strategy to be pursued..."

Int J Cancer, 2000 Aug, 87:4, 601-5

"Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is expressed in many tumor cell lines and has a role in both normal cell proliferation and in the growth of cancers.

Cancer Gene Ther, 2000 Mar, 7:3

Soy milk isn't much better since most soy is also GMO, plus the fact it will make one more estrogen dominant.  Rice milk is okay, but could possibly make too much phlegm in the body.

If one must drink cow's milk, then switch to Raw milk, which hasn't been tampered with, or use goat's milk.  Look up Weston A. Price.

Regarding calcium, it's best to get the calcium from natural sources and supplements.  Calcium phosphate is what bones are made from.  You can get a good calcium supplement and search the internet for monosodium phosphate.  You can also get a good quality Vitamin D3.  We get our D3 from Biotics Research and/or Synergy.  That can also be found online.  Also for bones, we take an organic silica product.  We use Orgono G5 Silica.  Besides building bones, it also helps to rebuild the teeth, collagen/elastin in the skin, joints and ligaments.  Best stuff ever!  We also take colloidal minerals from Youngevity and OsteoFX Plus.

Here's an article from Natural News....

Quote
(NaturalNews) How many times growing up did kids hear things like, "Milk does a body good" or "Got milk?" How many times did mom tell her children, "Drink your milk so you have healthy teeth and bones"? Americans have heard growing up that they must consume milk or suffer dire consequences when, in fact, drinking milk is what's dangerous.

Milk isn't always bad. Mother's milk -- that is, human milk -- provides a growing infant with all the nutrition he needs for the first six months of his life. In fact, human breast milk is designed by nature to be the perfect food for human infants. Similarly, cow's milk is designed by nature to be the perfect food -- for calves, not for human beings.

According to Robert Cohen, Executive Director of the Dairy Education Board and NOTMILK.com, milk consumption is to blame for a variety of health woes, including the following:

    * breast cancer
    * diabetes (both diabetes mellitus and juvenile diabetes)
    * kidney stones
    * acne
    * heart disease
    * osteoporosis
    * multiple sclerosis
    * stroke
    * rheumatoid arthritis

So why is milk so bad, and how does it cause all of these and other health problems? According to Vivian Goldschmidt, founder of Save Our Bones, there are a variety of myths surrounding milk consumption. One of the first myths, she says, is that drinking milk creates healthy bones because of the calcium found in the milk. However, the animal protein found in milk actually depletes the human body of calcium, exactly the opposite of what milk drinkers expect it to do.

In much the same way, she also dispels another milk myth, that drinking milk will help reduce bone fractures. She cites sources that show that higher milk consumption can actually be linked with an increase in bone fractures. Further, she also states that milk is a "processed food." Milk is pasteurized and homogenized, and the cows that produce the milk are given hormones and antibiotics (which, of course, wind up in the milk). Goldschmidt then links hormonal additives to cancer.

Ultimately, Cohen, Goldschmidt and hundreds of others want Americans (and, in fact, every human being on the planet) to get this message: Say 'No' to Milk!

Well TV is another problem, because TV is controlled by corporate interests, which do not have OUR best interests at heart.  TV is a tool to sway us to THEIR ways of thinking.  A FOX news reporter was fired, because they were going to blow the whistle on the entire milk industry.  However, the story was put on YouTube.  Do a search on that too.

Our world is run by corporate interests.  Bankers, The Fed, pHARMaceutical corporations which are all self-serving.

Very well said! I switched to coconut and almond milk, when I first came to know about this a couple of years ago, and have always felt good about that decision of mine.
