31. After you, snorer. Lactose intolerance

is not just a matter of smelly farts. Kids who can't (or won't) drink cows milk aren't getting the calcium they need. Seems to me a good idea for PETA to attempt to overcome dairy industry propaganda and create more choice for these kids.

And, if I'm not mistaken, schools can provide soy milk and receive reimbursement under USDA regs. For poor kids who can't (or won't) drink cows milk, this is a definite plus. Why don't you want them to have a choice? Why do you want them to suffer by missing out on getting the calcium they need? Why?
