Well, I don't know how it is in the US, but it's pretty much standard grocery store stuff in Finland. One liter of "normal" milk is usually just short of an euro in price and organic is just short of an euro and a half. Being a piss poor student most of the time that's of course a pretty big difference but the organic stuff is better for my digestive system and I prefer supporting organic products anyways, so that's what I choose to pour down my yap.

You do know that by supporting organic stuff, you are indirectly supporting world hunger, don't you? :B

Not with the milk I drink. I don't see exactly how choosing the unprocessed one of two kinds of milk both produced in Finland takes wood away from the even more piss poor.

Nah, it's not the milk. It's actually the organic vegetables(/fruit?) that is the problem, so even if you drink enough to die from milk poisoning, you are likely not gonna hurt a fly. :la:

Ah :P Well with fruit I hardly have the money to organic -- when I do it's Finnish products. Those don't exactly get exported that much.

Here in Amurica we get.... Milk... From cows. Organic cows. So I guess our milk is organic too.

I just buy the milk with the green cap

Ah, well that's not really organic milk at least by my definition and the definition used in the Nordic countries and the likes. Here organic milk = milk that has only been heat processed to kill the germs. Usually the fats in milk are also manipulated, which is actually the main cause of lactose intolerance in people.

Huh. I didn't know it was so different from here and there. Maybe I'll look into organic milk in the US. Maybe some local milk from my area :la:
