I also can't drink milk. I've had one glass in the last 5 years.

I found this hysterically funny... purplegrapes_ December 5 2005, 19:31:23 UTC

Milk is gross, but so is "I am 16 going on 17".

I already entered my picks, so I get the bonus and you do not. HA!

How do you not like milk? The one year when I was 6 that I had an extended stomach flu and couldn't drink it pretty much killed me. Also, I'm green with envy right about now. 40 DAYS!!

Milk is beneficial in multiple ways. First, and most obviously, it is a source of calcium and is very good for ensuring bone protection in old age, as Spence so eloquently put. But less obviously and perhaps more useful now is that milk is not a polar substance, or is nonpolar. Therefore, when eating spicy foods such as peppers, which have a substance in them called capsaicinoids which are covered in oil. Therefore, water doesn't do a darn thing about making the spiciness go away, but milk is an easily accessible alternative that dissolves the capsaicinoids and allows for an enjoyable meal. So when you're feeling spicy, drink milk!
