| I certainly hope that was a joke. But who knows? |

| What a joke. Not that I'm surprised. Honestly, I understand supporting something, but there comes a time when it crosses the line and becomes ridiculous. I personally think they should reassign all the cows to focus on the Cinnamon Buns and Banans in the Rum ice cream...then it wouldn't be so darn hard to find! |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | This can't possibly be true...at least I hope not. Now I'll never look at B&J's the same way ever again.

| It's true -- I read the article yesterday on CNN. I would never eat or drink anything that had breast milk in it!!

Bama...you can have all the cinnamon buns and banans in rum you want. I will say...there's a work from home job for some SATH mom.

| Do they really expect them to consider that option, or was it just more of a "how would you like it" type suggestion? I would *hope* the latter.... In the not so exact words of Capt Jack Sparrow..."Why is the bananas in the rum always gone?" Last edited by BamaFan121s; 09-24-2008 at 09:20 AM. |

I live in an area with many dairy farmers - the government subsidies their farms. Many dairymen are forced to dump milk, as at times the market has been too slow. No way, do I believe for one minute the cows are under too much pressure to produce milk for Ben&Jerry's icecream! That was not even a good try PETA!!!

| My question is this...if dairy cows, or any cows for the matter, are no longer 'on the menu' so to speak...what excatly do they expect to happen to them? Pet cows only? Just release them into the wild? Not to mention the jobs that 1000's of American jobs that would be lost as a result.... No more stressed cows-just stressed and unemployed humans instead? (This is not a 'improve the conditions for the cows campaign', it's a 'cut it out altogether campaign.') |

| Peta is rediculous. They really have nothing else better to do. I am an animal lover but wow they are taking things to the extreme. I thought the time when you could call and get a free body bag was bad but this....well i'll just keep the rest of my opinions of them to myself.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | That's PETA research material, right?!? In this case, the other side's book could be "Truox", instead of "Truax"
