As much as I detest PETA since their "Holocaust On Your Plate" campaign, they have a point.
Pam Anderson, huh? Do You Like Elizabeth Berkely?
Cesaer or Ranch?

3. True or false: Milk does a body good.
ANSWER: False. Despite what the eyes-on-their-wallets dairy industry wants you to believe, drinking milk does not prevent osteoporosis; instead, the high animal-protein content of milk actually causes calcium to be leached from the body. Industrialized Western nations, the biggest consumers of milk, have the highest rates of osteoporosis, while regions of the world where dairy products are essentially unheard of, such as China and Japan, are virtually osteoporosis-free. Get the right amount of calcium from the plant world–tofu, broccoli, navy beans, sesame seeds, nuts, and fortified orange juice are all good sources.
So, no matter how much milk you drink, every drop causes a net loss of calcium. The ADA did a study on this 5 or 10 years ago and refuses to release the findings. Don't believe the hype about milk.
If you want more info, read the book Milk is Poison. If you like it, that's one thing, but don't go off thinking it gives you strong bones and teeth.
I think I'll head home to my own personal lettuce lady.
Oh - and Caesar dressing contains anchovies, while ranch contains dairy - just so you know. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
