Being a Vegan

My cousin has just recently become a vegan (well mostly, she has the occasional donut). She signed up for this 30 day vegetarianism thing, but she took it to the next level and became a vegan. She decided to do this after reading the book “Skinny Bitch” they talked about how milk is so bad for you. This would probably kill my friend heather if she new this, but anyway. They said that when getting milk they are pumping a cow full of antibiotics and tons of steroids so that they produce more milk then normal. Then the machines that they hook the cows to to get the milk makes sores on their utters. These sores create a puss and this puss goes into our milk. I know it’s really gross. They do though sterilize this puss, but still you’re drinking sterilized puss. Even if you are drinking organic milk it could not be good for you. Because if a cow is sick they can’t give it antibiotics to making better so you are just drinking a sick cows milk. It’s not healthy for you. Another thing about milk is that we are the only species to drink milk as adults. Babies drink milk to turn a small 7 pound thing into a 30 pound toddler. Why should we need milk as adults? There is no real purpose for it. All milk is doing to us is making us fat. You may drink low fat milk but it’s still FAT. I’m sorry to all you milk lovers but this needed to be said, you need to know what you’re really drinking. Comment on your opinion.
