    Well, I love butter, the taste of it. But I changed to margarine for the health benefits. Vegetable oil is not some mysterious concoction brewed in a science lab. It comes straight out of canola or sunflower seed. I suppose there's other 'crap' in there too, but I wouldn't know? As in my post to...

    Thing is though, it's all just a market. Anyone in the market just wants to make a profit. So they are providing what the market wants. You say that no one asked for it, yet everyone buys it, except for yourself. If no one wanted the food your talking about, but did want the pure form, and...

    Could you have got the milk directly off a dairy farmer? I'm sure they'd flog you some off for cash. At the height of the food crisis last year an Oz dairy farmer was only getting 60c per litre. This year as the US and Europe ramp up their ridiculous farm subsidies again it's back to 26c...
