They weren't biologically made to drink alcohol or eat big macs their whole lives either yet here you are.

Yeah, this is a hella weird comment in an alcohol thread. That stuff is actually toxic, and popular mainly because of it.

What's with Lemmy's obsession with water? Most people know that water is the best thing to drink but this site is preachy as fuck about it.

The hydrohomies are all grown up, I guess?

I haven't actually seen that.

Everyone knows alcohol is poison. Not many people know the side effects of drinking too much milk. You could actually become addicted to it and it would become a problem. I had a friend who had some trouble with it, which is why I typed that comment.

You're getting downvoted but you're actually correct. My grandfather was told by his doctor not to drink so much milk. He drank at least 3 glasses a day. I forget why but if you're telling an 85 yo to stop doing something as a doctor, it probably has some bad short-term effects

Source? Addictive milk is kind of "out of left field" for me.

We show the estimable rational addiction model tends to yield spurious evidence in favor of the rational addiction hypothesis when aggregate data are used. Direct application of the canonical model yields results seemingly indicative that non-addictive commodities such as milk, eggs, and oranges are rationally addictive.

This is literally a study about how to get bad conclusions from this model of addiction. It's supposed to be ridiculous.

That's my mistake! Had company and posted something I didn't read. My apologies. Maybe I can learn something from this article then.

Hey, no worries. It happens.

Very true, yet lactose intolerance is quite common among humans.
