Concur, every time I see USians paying half as much for milk products as we do I get upset.

I don't.

They allow growth hormones to be fed to dairy cows in the States. I personally, can't understand why people go to the States to buy milk of all things. And I have an anecdote about those hormones.

My wife's personal trainer came from Russia to Georgia (the state, though it might have been another southern state - irrelevant) with a bunch of friends. They noticed a marked increase in breast size (over which period I'm unsure). Now these women were/are all extremely fit so it wasn't a simple increase in size overall. When she moved to Vancouver though her breasts reduced. She doesn't KNOW it's the milk but she's pretty sure.

Regardless, when I'm in the States I splurge for organic milk if possible.
