  1. Food for thought…. is it really "natural" to drink the lactations of another species? No other animal does this. It's pretty weird when you think about it. That milk was meant for calves not grown adult humans. Should we still be breastfeeding? The calves that get separated from their mothers their first day of life, causing immeasurable distress to both of them. The concept of "Happy cows" in the dairy industry is a myth. We wouldn't go and suckle on a cow's udder ourselves so is it really any less strange to drink it out of a bottle? And why just cows then? What about other mammals…. dog milk? Cat milk? Does that seem normal? And what is so "unnatural" about plant milks? They come from plants… which are natural. Literally from the earth. They are not made in a lab. That's straight up misinformation. Many plant milks are simply made of the plants and water with nothing else added whatsoever. Yes some may add harmless stabilisers to some plant milks to keep the consistency right for hot drinks, but milk is full or antibiotics (contributing to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance)) and growth hormones…. and pus too, from mastitis, a very common infection of cow's udders they get from being milked so much in filthy conditions. Yum! Call It "nut juice" if you want, but cow's milk is bovine secretion. Oh and another thing, it's interesting how this woman mentions the fact that animal agriculture is bad for the environment, but doesn't actually deny it or provide any evidence to counter it, and then says the government should support the dairy industry anyway. She also mentions water shortages and dairy uses up tons more water than plant milks – even almond, the most water intensive of the plant milks but it pales by comparison next to dairy in terms of water use. I'm aware most of you all in the comments will dislike me for posting this but I'm doing it anyway. Just have a think about it. Adult humans drinking the lactations of another species is straight up unnatural. Period.

  2. Ahhhh he wanted to laugh when she said nut juice! 😂 but serious stop calling it milk. Stop calling vegan products “chicken” and “beef”

  3. Guess what… peanut butter doesn't contain butter. Go on and attack that, too. So many dairy people are losing their minds over the popularity of plant-based MILKS. Fox Biz should be focused on agribusiness subsidies instead of worrying about food names and sexy M&Ms.

  4. No it milk from nuts that what they call and tell how you get milk from nuts or soybeans I would love to see the .milking machine on a nut or a soybeans .give me a answer you collage Brandon them must went to the same collage that Biden went to

  5. Some people can't consume dairy, you would think people could use their brains and realize this but no… Not even a little bit. Sure Nut based milks arent ACTUAL milk, no one is expecting them to be either. Have your dairy, someone gave me whole milk as a joke and I ended up hospitalized. Can we not bash people who CANT CONSUME DAIRY and buy into almond milk and cashew milk in the name of preserving the dairy industry? Sure the companies are predatory but name one company that isn't, I'll wait. 😒

  6. Isn't that misrepresentation?

  7. Between this and New Mexico murdering 150 wild cows. I believe they are trying to exterminate the cow species because of there “methane emissions that harm the planet”

  8. almond milk is not milk. I call it almond juice despite not truly knowing what the hell it is.

  9. Milk is from mammals. Not from nuts. At the same time cow's milk is for cows.

  10. I am surprised, that nobody took the Simpsons route, and began breeding and milking rats, for school lunches!!
    (You remember the MALK episode, don't you??)

  11. You guys are missing the point here. Some people can't have milk from the cow. I have galactosemia (look it up) I can't have anything that comes from the cow (dairy) almond milk has given me the opportunity to get the nutrients like milk without getting sick or killing myself and without relying on soy milk which can be bad for men killing test. At least mention this fact or consider it.

  12. We ALSO NEED TO KEEP OUR FOOD, AND ITS PROCESSING AMERICAN!
    NOT FOREIGN OWNED!

  13. What a joke. Right equals wrong, and wrong is right.

  14. Agreed. Milk is from cows!

  15. This is the only administration that would allow this because they also say boys can be girls . FJB

  16. Just like woman's health is about Health But Democrats say woman's health is about killing the unborn 🧐 or infrastructure DEMOCRATS have included things that are not fundamentally called infrastructure 🧐 it took me 50 years to realize how America work and it was always about policies and never realize that was scary times we live in. All these old should have been gone two decades ago congressmen and senators from the left set America up for failure all thanks to Sheila Jackson's big mouth and her racist minions. 🧐

  17. Isn't this the woke influence?, If there's is something I admire about English Language is Precision of Description, now a days you can hear a Man is the same as a Woman, so for them the head is the same al the tail.

  18. Sorry but "Nut Milk" has been around for before electricity! Not grown in a lab, but made in people's kitchens. It was especially needed during the summer months when milk would curdle in the heat.

  19. I have grandkids who have Allergies to foods out there. If you take away the name of what it truly is it will cause a class action lawsuit for all who have allergec reactions

  20. "Nut Juice."
    God I love Dagen.

  21. Don't feel bad for the "industry". What they do to the cows and calves is horrendous!

  22. These nut-jobs cant fool us with their sh!tty nut-juice.

  23. Dagen is awesome. Such a role model. Thanks girlfriend.

  24. President TRUMP Please hire new FDA EMPLOYEES

  25. It's to clear out rural farm country and push people into 15 minute cities or smart cities. I heard they are parking train carts of chemicals in middle of farm county in secluded areas far and wide.

  26. We are sick of ALL the bought-off sell-out alphabetical Government agencies. These stupid people are screwing not only all the people but themselves & their own families as well. They think the evilness they are supporting & covering for won't turn on them & come for their loved ones one day, but it will. You all working at the FDA & the USDA will one day be drinking roach milk & eating larva cancer cell sandwiches too & You'll have no one to cry to or blame but your stupid, pathetic selfish, cowardly selves. You WILL ANSWER TO GOD for all you've done & I hear that in HELL you NEVER stop screaming out for mercy & for the God you pretend isn't real. FU ALL!

  27. It turns men into women . BOYS GET WHOLE MILK ONLY.

  28. In-dairy milk IS NOT milk. It may be “nut juice” otherwise it’s false advertising.

  29. Vegetable "milk" is not milk.
    Read "Unsettled " by Dr. Steven Koonin. There's no climate emergency.

  30. Since I don't drink cow t i t spray cause it's not for human consumption but for baby cows…I really don't care

  31. I founders fled the east to make a better life, this here is what they were fleeing from.

  32. One thing COVID proved to Americans is the FDA is corrupt!

  33. Abolish all Political Parties because they failed America

  34. God Bless this Farmer and Her entire Family 🙏🙏🙏

  35. What else would you expect from this administration, a Woman can be a Man and a Man can be a Woman. So I guess anything can be called Milk, even Milk could be Juice.

  36. Under Biden wokeness we won't be able to say WHITE milk anymore.

  37. FDA is corrupt along with CDC, NIH, and the majority of the federal government.

  38. If it doesn't come from a mammal, then it is not milk!! The FDA needs to be sue for not protecting consumers!!!!

  39. The left is crazy. And sick.

  40. They won’t stop thinking of new ways to torture us ….
