GREEN COWS?!?!?!

Milk is one of the big things that has gone organic.

According to Organics, to be certified organic, the dairy cows that they use to get the milk must be watched and managed under organic practices for at least one year before they can give away their milk as organic. The cows feeding must be grown on land that has been under organic cultivation practices for a minimum of three years before their milk can be used.

The land is maintained with the use of recognized organic horticultural practices according to Organics. They also state that their cows enjoy a 100% certified organic diet and that they are not given growth hormones or treated with antibiotics.

Now at the store there are some rumors that organic milk is more expensive and that it never goes on sale. Only half of that statement is true. The organic milk was listed at $3.99 per half gallon, but was on sale for $3.29. So that means that organic milk does go on sale. Although it was on sale it was more expensive than the price of regular milk which was $2.99 and was also on sale for $2.79.

So organic milk is more expensive, and if you are like most people you would go with the cheaper milk and thats about all that matters. There was however another very big difference in the two milks that could mean a lot to tons of milk drinkers. The expiration date on the organic milk was more than one month longer than the regular milk which was very surprising. This is a great thing for people who really wanna have milk in their houses but don't seem to drink it all that often. This would be a great way to always have milk and would end up saving people money by not having to go out and buy new milk all the time.

The look, the smell, as well as the taste of the milk all seemed to be exactly the same as regular milk.
