Actually, all the steppe/tundra dwelling Asians I've read about drank milk- the Mongols drank fermented milk- kumiss- the milk being obtained from their pony or ass mares. I believe even the Manchu originally drank a similar drink.
Also, you'll quite easily find milk products in India, where the cow is sacred. Rasmalai or lassi anyone?
I think the Maasai of East Africa drink cow's blood mixed with milk, and of course Arabs and Jews drink milk- as do Iranians, and Turks. So milk isn't some Euro plot to get the whole world smelling like cheese- it's a useful by-product of herding/horse riding cultures. |
oh no i did say mongol, arabic, african cultures prolly drink milk (though i guessed goat milk) but what is true is milk is really euro thing. For other cultures the milk is not as well ingrained into their cultures food as well as euros are.
I thought hindus are not supposed to eat anything off their sacred cow? So milk is exception?
on a side note: may i remind u im not launchig an anti-milk campaign. I hate the stuff, but when i drink coffee (another drink i dont like), i add milk and sugar not those phony cremes.
now coffee, thats another bad stuff! though stunts your growth rumor is most likely false and not even scientifically based.
I prefer tea. any tea. But earl grey is just so bad IMO.

Hindus may not eat the flesh of the cow- but may use its dung for fuel, and consume its milk, and milk products- hindu statues are blessed with butter and milk.
If you include the Indian sub-continent, Turkish peoples, Finno-Ugric peoples, Western Europeans, semitic races such as the Jews and Arabs, Mongols and certain African peoples- well, that leaves you with the Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, South-East Asians and some Africans and Native Americans, Kooris and Polynesians who would not habitually consume milk in some form. One of Australia's growth industries is luxury/connoisseur cheese- which goes to Singapore, Japan and China, oddly enough.

What does vanilla coke taste like? I've heard that it just tastes like coke that has gone flat, only it isn't flat. Which leads to the question: What does vanilla coke taste like when it is flat?

Quite the conundrum.
Really though vanilla coke is the best. It tastes just like coke with less fizz and a hint of vanilla flavoring.
