I used to have to drink a glass of milk with every meal when I was growing up, I didn't even have the option of water, it was milk or nothing. I stopped drinking milk when I moved out. I haven't had a glass of milk in 25 years. I still consume dairy, I just don't drink a glass of straight milk.

I mean, milk is nowhere near the super food they sold us back in the day... but it's far from the toxic sludge people put in their bodies daily nowadays.

Even a coke seems mild compared to the monster drinks and whatever other crap Logan Paul is peddling today

I am doing a lean bulk and it turns out milk is incredibly high protein so now I'm drinking more than I probably did as a kid. Easy way to get the calories and feel full. And chocolate milk... well.

Well no wonder you didn't fulfill your potential.

I don't drink much milk nowadays just because I mostly drink water, but when I do have milk on the fridge... it's gone in two days max unless I carefully ration it.

nothin' like a cold glass o' melk

I'm exactly the same, and it was always 2%. I was always a slow eater, I'd always be hoping and waiting for the moment my parents would leave the room for a min so I could run to the sink and pour it down the drain. I asked as an adult if they had ever realized I had been dumping it if they left and somehow they never suspected.
