Thanks for that...found some interesting info...US map in article is cool.

We’re creating cow islands

The parts of the United States that have higher populations of dairy cows are in the West and northern states.

Interesting story and map. Thanks. There is a huge cheese production plant in Portales, NM, right in the center of that west Texas/eastern NM dairy cluster.

Over the years I have grown leery and skeptical about any study concerning foods and nutrition. Of course their are some truisms (refined sugar is always a food with few benefits and lots of drawbacks), but their are a whole lot of "not necessarily truisms". Not only is the science of the human body extremely complex, each person has a different set of body parts that work differently, have different microbe populations throughout their body that greatly affect reactions to food, and live in different environments that may cause them to react differently to different food stimulus. What may be truly harmful to one person may be beneficial to another (take salt, for instance). Some foods in moderate amounts may be fairly harmless, yet be harmful if consumed in excess (beer, caffeine and beef for instance). Seems that too often studies make over-reaching generalizations that don't fit everyone in all situations.

I’ve had two doctors over the years tell me a beer a day was good. Does that make it good? Who knows. It is ultimately all up to what we choose to believe.…..believe it or not.

Don't any of you remember the ads ?

I'd imagine if you had an allergy to something in dairy milk, you might do better to avoid it. Used to keep dairy goats and i notice when drinking their milk that i had less phlegm from drinking it. Also noticed you really want to make sure the goats don't get into willows and eat them, their milk gets a very strong taste.

Every person should decide what is good or not good for the health.
I prefer lemon water to a glass of milk for example https://betterme.world/articles/lеmon-water-health-benefits/ but my wife can't live without her morning cereals with one liter of milk and few pieces of cheese after.

Texas is the 5th largest dairy producer.

Interesting and colorful article here.

Right? We do have a few dairies as fresh milk does not travel well. I've lived in both states. Driving around on rural roads you can see the difference in breeds in the pastures.

We’ve been on an industrial scale dairy tour twice. They load their milk into super-insulated tankers, and with no additional refrigeration they can take it 16 hours with only a 2 degree drop in temperature.

The dairy is in NW Indiana and serves markets well into Georgia.
