    Because dairy farmers are so indebted that even a small shortfall of revenue could mean ruin. The system can’t stop or there will be massive financial collapse in that segment of the population. There needs to be a one-time government buyback of dairy assets if you want to end the cycle, and get these farmers out of their debt. Otherwise, the system will be perpetuated.

    Remember when Starbucks used to be a coffee shop? Now it is a cow fat milk shake shop, with whipping cream on top.

    Cheese probably. Fucking love cheese. Pls diary isn’t just milk. It’s chocolate it cake it’s so many things.

    I’m all for swapping to coconut milk for things that it can replace. If we can replicate it at some level or just plant a shit tonne of coconut trees. Potentially good for environment and nice for us.

    Cheese would be an issue though.

      Cake and chocolate can be made easily without dairy. Cheese is a lot harder, especially aged cheese. But alternatives get better by the day
