>>>Interesting. When I was around 12 or 13, that was my favorite show! :o) BTW, when I was living on a farm, we always had milk on the table in a large jug/pitcher. It was fresh milk from the cow (yuck). We also had fresh home-made butter too though and lots of fresh veggies (which we had to pick of course).

You guys just don't know what's good. I grew up drinking raw milk. The problem I had was I was the one that had to mike our one cow (by hand). Of course the best tasting milk was squirted directly into my mouth while milking.
