I've met lots of smart people. At least, they are smarter than me! But it's amazing how even among some of the smartest people I know there are some really basic things that seem to slip through the cracks.
Like, here's where most people think milk comes from:
1) The fridge
2) The supermarket
3) Magical fairy cows that automatically lactate for our convenience
4) All of the above (this was me)
I think these options pretty much sum up the images that you see in ads for cows' milk. Well, next week Animals Australia is going to do some advertising of their own, only this time, they're letting people in on a little secret -- the dark side to dairy that they *won't* tell you about in their ads. Click here to download the new ad, or sit back and watch this video to discover the truth:
Did that leave a sour taste in your mouth? Don't stress, there are stacks of cruelty-free milks, yoghurts, ice creams and chocolate to help you get your creamy fix without the cruelty.
If you think animals shouldn't be treated like 'waste products' then please share this vid on your Facebook and Twitter. And if you're cashed up you can even make a donation to help get Animals Australia's new ad in the newspaper next week!
What's the most disturbing thing you've discovered about where food comes from? We wanna know -- leave a comment!

One of my friends says someone he knows owned dairy cows and that they were 'treated wonderfully'...of course people are going to treat them decently infront of visitors. And just because one dairy farm might treat cows okay, doesn't mean there are not others that don't and the simple fact that there are places that treat cows in such a way...is revolting and horrible.
Humans are monsters.

The milk industry has just done SUCH an incredible job pulling the wool over *everyone's* eyes for years and years, so bloody sneaky! And cruel!

So, what's done in the past cannot be undone but we can positive changes for the future to be a much brighter and cruelty-free!

If someone is cruel to a cat or a dog they could be imprisoned but its ok to harm a cow or calf?? How pathetic! You can catch a poor fish and let it die slowly in an empty bucket or you can hold the dying or dead fish while posing for a trophy photo to brag about and its completely acceptable.
What a sick world! The laws against cruelty to all animals need to be 10 times harsher and properly enforced.
I drink alot of dairy milk. I don't like soya. Aren't soya products linked to cancer anyway? I'm not sure what to do now.

Since finding out the truth I've been trying my very best to explore vegan dairy products...it's been a difficult road, trying to find vegan yoghurts and chocolates that I like and can enjoy guilt free. I'm still looking but I'm determined to get there and rid my life of dairy for good!

And to 'end cruely' you would probably sooner get cancer from the milk than you would from the soya, dont listen to that it's just propaganda thats probably been made up dy factory farming dairy companies. The japanese have been eating soya products for centuries and they have no higer cancer rates than any other soya-eating country. There are more lies out there than you are probably even aware of.

I couldn't have been more wrong - I didn't crave chocolate whatsoever after only a few days! You should try it and see how you go
