    The worst part is that often people telling you what milk should be or not don’t even know how the milk they drink is made or where it comes from. The number of non vegan people who think cows “just make milk” all the time for free and that it’s carefully harvested by a dude while rubbing her back when the reality is so drastically more horrifying.

      Exactly. If they want honesty in labelling then images of happy cows in fields on dairy products should be replaced by pictures of young calves being pulled from their mothers so they don’t consume the milk.

        Oh come on, let’s at least be honest about that (I say as someone who doesn’t drink milk anymore)

        Lactating cows will continue to lactate so long as someone is taking the milk, the calves are not getting some type of despicable treatment by being weened off.

        …that treatment comes after, in the slaughterhouses
