And that is a very good point too! Something to think about today, and tonight, when someone at the dinner table will inevitably ask for some non-mammary beverage!
Happy Holidays All!

Subject: Soy MILK?

In our house, the term 'milk' really means human milk. Everything else is
'rice milk', 'soy milk', or 'cow milk'.
******************************************************************************
**************************************
At the ILCA conference this summer, Mark Creagan, in the very few minutes he
had (due to computer/technology problems) mentioned that milk comes from
mammary glands. Therefore rice, soy, coconuts, almonds -- don't produce milk.
Since -- at least as far as he could discern -- they didn't have mammaries.
They produce juice. So our children drink milk or cow milk, or manufactured
milk -- or juice, in the case of soy. They/we drink rice juice, coconut
juice or soy juice.....
As long as we are changing terminology, may as well go all the way....
