    I have no idea why we think it's cool to drink another animals milk, cows milk is for their young. They don't produce it because they want another species to drink it.
    Our minds have evolved to think it's normal but squeezing a white substance out of another animals tit and drinking it is really fucked up in my opinion.

    Because like the tender, juicy, baby animals themselves it tastes so damn good. Nothing like a bit of bovine infanticide. Else for the vegans, it's like Kopi Luwak coffee. The flavour you get from defecated beans fed to civets is simply great. :)


    Edit: Naturally harvested and excreted civet beans that is. Vegans prob wouldn't touch the farmed stuff (quite rightly cause it tastes like sh1t).

    The Diary industry is in evolution. When we find an intuitive interface between device and mind with reciprocal communication we will advance beyond manually entering items on a screen.

    As for cows, the future is China.

    But the key is to hold the farm. Once sold, 'tis gone.

    OK, seems as shonky as donkey crap.
    The company started up to produce baby formula to export into china.
    Word is they have not been paying ANYONE and plenty of workers have already left, they have paid out some of the earlier employees in CASH with no entitlements and told to keep quiet. (source local paper)
    Cant get dairy's to supply them with milk and dont have the contracts set in stone to export. (source my boss)
    This means they would have to buy product from another supplier eg - Murray Goulburn.
    Set up on a shoestring budget, the factory is in need of a serious revamp with rain leaking thru the asbestos roof into the lunch room and other parts of the factory. They are yet to manufacture any product. (source local paper).
    Will have a longer chat with the boss man today.
    Workers are going to take them to court as they are trading while insolvent. ( source local paper)

    OK chatting with the boss man found out a bit more.
    They originally opened just to repackage formula, buy in bulk and put it in tins to fit on a supermarket shelf.
    Supply problems have been the issue, so no product to repackage.
    From day dot they have not paid their workers properly so this has been happening for quite some time.
    They were going to eventually process fresh milk sourced locally, but that has not eventuated.
    At first the whole community was really happy about the factory starting up again, however it has now turned into a sore point for locals.
    If they loose support of locals the factory will NEVER run, they wont find workers. Toora is a very small town, like Iam talking a pub and a general store there, just recently they reopened the little supermarket because they thought the milk factory would re open, that wont last long.Is pretty much a ghost town except in tourist season.
    The factory is plagued with safety issues due to age, the new owners have not spent a cent on it.
