I hadnt' thought about the ethanol thing, but yeah, it would be great. I think corn sweetners may be far worse for us than sugar. Of course, we eat too much of all of them!

So, you like your milk and other dairy products full of female hormones? Because unless you buy organic milk - that's what you're getting, along with pesticides and antibiotics.
They pump the cows full of artifical female hormones to get them to produce more milk. Those hormones are in the milk that you drink.
If you're a man who drinks that hormone-laden milk, you might want to keep an eye on your breast size.

Total BS, I drink over 2 gallons of whole market milk every week and have for over 60 years plus at least a gallon of ice cream a week and have no ill effects.
I won't eat their crappy grass fed beef either.
yes, buddy...!
I have a bread machine that I use for mixing and the forst rising, then I switch to glass pans. I do the second rise out of the machine, and bake it in the oven. I don't like the big square size the machine makes...
YOu must have the same kind of bread maker I have. I used to love to knead it myself, but I have arthritis in my hands now, and it's hard to get thru the entire process.

It isn't BS. They only started using female hormones on dairy cows recently - not while you were in your formative years. If you are 60, then when you were growing up - it wasn't a problem. At your age those hormones probably aren't going to affect you much, but for a young boy - pumping him full of estrogen and other female hormones during adolescence is not a good idea.
Researchers say that female hormones in milk have caused American girls to hit puberty much earlier than in the past. It is not unusual for 9 and 10 year old girls to start menses.(old enough to bleed - old enough to breed) It can be directly blamed on hormones in our dairy products.
