Soy vey. I understand from the veggie thread that the Dairy "people" are suing the soy milk people to stop calling soy milk milk.

"It's milk."

"It's not milk milk."

"Milk milk?"

"Milk milk."

milk was a funny word from the get-go.
If you look at it, it's kind of dissolving, as we speak.

Eeech. Spit it out.

I haven't had a glass of milk in uhm.....some number of decades. To me, it's just diluted Elmer's glue. The actual idea of drinking it is bizarre. "Like water, but clouded up by glue, but more like cement, that they squeezed out of an animal trying to feed its baby." "Jeez! Are we getting desperate for food or something?"

Humans do all kind of weird stuff. That's one of the weirder ones though. You know, from an alien perspective. I mean, take an alien to a big dairy barn, milk shed, and see what happens. Watch his face, and see if he can figure out what's going on. "What's happening with those.....things?" "They're taking the babie's milk, and they're going to drink it." "Oh--kaaaay."

I suppose they'll sue mothers, too. You know, The Milk Association. Milk Producers.

Well, if they're milk producers, shouldn't they be mothers?

Or silly fat cows.

<<soy vey!>>

I used to munch on soybeans in the 60's when I hunted. The combine would always leave a few pods. Gave that up when they started spraying them with agent orange.
