Got Milk? Not This Generation.
www.nytimes.com
Alarmed by dwindling sales to Gen Z, the dairy industry is going all out to get younger Americans on the milk train.

It even explicitly says that younger people are consuming cheese at similar rates. How the hell did this ever become news?

Enjoy the cringe :D

    I bet all the antibiotics fed to cows made us more lactose intolerant faster. I can't even eat ice cream any more. It's not a choice it makes me feel pretty junk.

      Yeah, I didn't come into not eating dairy through any line of ethics or cost or taste. I got tired of diarrhea coming out of my doodoo ass, feeling like shit constantly, and always breaking out. I got rid of dairy and surprise surprise, I feel better in every metric. No amount of Ag lobbying will ever bring me back

        I wonder how many Americans just keep chugging milk even after they've become lactose intolerant. I went several years eating cereal and milk every morning even though I kind of knew something was wrong. There's just so much cultural momentum to keep eating and drinking the same stuff that everyone else does.
