I agree with Dr. Rob and Dr. Kim that those who like milk and can
tolerate it should not be made to feel that this is a bad choice.  I
always feel cheated if I can't have milk with my chocolate (and usually
get a headache from the sugar if I don't--I realize that the best choice
would be to skip the chocolate altogether, but it tastes so-o-o good).
Milk is one of my favorite foods.  It's okay by me, though, if we
substitute chocolate for the fruit group.  My kids started whole or 2%
cow's milk from a cup (in addition to breastfeeding) at around 6-8
months of age, and they all like milk.
