Makes me think of how convenient life is these days.

Even a hundred years ago - society was more pastoral. It was
convenient to own your own chickens, goat or cow.

I always wondered the history of how "bacon and eggs" got paired
together for breakfast. I poked around the Internet - owning chickens
was pretty common in days of yore - but how and where did eggs get
associated with bacon for breakfast?

Inquiring minds, and all that. I'll have to check the OED again; it's
a common phrase.

An oldie: Bacon and Egg - a day's work for a chicken, a lifetime
commitment for a pig.

I had 15 years of stomach problems before I figured out I had an
intolerance to milk. Now I only have Lactaid fat-free milk in the
house. I don't drink plain milk anymore, but use the Lactaid milk for
cereal and iced mocha drinks, and cooking, etc. After so many years of
fat-free, regular whole mlk gags me.

I quit drinking milk years ago. IMHO it's not worth the calories.

I love milk. I drink no fat milk all the time. In fact, the milk I
get has additional calcium so I can get my calcium needs with three
glasses in stead of taking 3 pills a day.

I love milk and drink a lot of it - but it's all skim, and one
particular brand; many brands have an odd taste. I really don't like
the taste/feel of 2% or whole milk, or real (unflavored) cream. I
drink milk with everything, except most bare nekkid fruits (except
bananas). If it's a fruit dessert, that's o.k. I love savory stuff
and milk together - don't understand what's not to like.

With you on that one. Gave up drinking liquid milk as soon as the
parents allowed us to! Was absolutely revolted by all the people
drinking milk with their meals at university (in the Midwest). One bowl
of cereal with low-fat milk per week is all that is tolerable for me.
It's ok in cooking though cos it's seasoned with something.

I don't dislike it, but I rarely drink it these days. The major
exception is if I've got a pan of just baked cornbread. Either
crumble the cornbread in a bowl and pour milk over like a cereal, or
slather a wedge of cornbread with butter and drink milk with it.
Either sweet milk or buttermilk will do, but tend to prefer sweet.

If I have cerea, then plain soy milk.

I love milk, always have. Not skim or powdered.....real milk. After
something sweet is best and the colder the better.

Last glass of milk I drank was when I was about 14 and my mother made me
drink the vile stuff.

I like ice cream (especially a good vanilla) cheese, custard, whipped cream,
and put milk in sauces, I just despise drinking it straight.

A physician friend of mine postulates that most people who truly despise
milk have at least a mild intolerance - they lack the enzymes to
properly digest the sugars and/or proteins which triggers GI issues
(which may be mild) but their brain still makes the subconscious connection.

Could be. I've also heard that the body will crave what it needs to survive
so maybe the cheeses and custards make up for the straight milk deficiency.

Yep. The more processed the dairy, the less likely to trigger a
reaction. Cheese and yogurt are already partially broken down via
fermentation. Don't know about custard, which is merely cooked.

Body craves what it needs to survive? Someone please explain to MY
body that I don't need dark chocolate to survive....

Same here, except I was about 5. I can remember sitting at the kitchen
table and not being allowed to get up until I finished my stupid glass
of milk. Amazing how parents can completely turn you off certain
foods.

But, like you, I thoroughly enjoy all kinds of alternative milk
products.

I have always loathed the taste of every type of milk, even as a child,
except for buttermilk. For some reason I have always found buttermilk
appealing.

I quit drinking milk when I was weaned as a small child. My father loved
buttermilk but I only use it to cook with. Big pone of cornbread last
night had two cups of buttermilk in it. Cornbread was a side dish for
Senate Navy bean soup. I make my oatmeal with milk instead of water and
that's about as close to drinking the white stuff as I get.

Ovaltine malt.

We have hot dog shops where it is more common than not to have a
chocolate milk with the chili dogs.

George, there is *nothing* like a skillet of southern buttermilk cornbread!
My favorite pairing is with a bowl of Corn, Okra, and Tomato Soup. I also
like cold cornbread broken up in a glass an filled with buttermilk. I only
buy regular whole milk for recipes.

It's extremely rare for me to drink a glass of milk at all, especially
since we've started using low-fat milk.

If we buy whole milk I'll sometimes drink it by itself, but I usually
don't bother.

I think among adults I know, the fraction of those who will
drink a glass of milk with a meal is low, below 5%, possibly
below 2%.

It's possible it's the sort of question that people over-respond
to on polls (some of which are conducted by Milk Boards and such.)

I grew up with buttermilk. I love the stuff.
But, it's getting harder and harder to find a good buttermilk.

I don't know how many "soured" containers I've returned to the grocer.

Gross stuff! But I'll drink a jug of buttermilk.

To me there are some meals that just go with a glass of milk.
Eggs & toast (bacon optional) and pot roast with carrots and
potatoes. I have no idea why those particular meals go with a
nice cold glass of milk, but it's pretty much the only time I drink
it. Being that milk and my guts don't get along, I don't have it
very often.

It's also nice with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
