At the contrairy! In Western Europe, and I think in the US as well, children
are pushed to drink cow's milk and if they don't like it, it might be sneaked
in through sweets. German lactnetters undoubtely will now which children's
filled chocalte is advertised as having an extra serving of milk in it.
