i just saw a thing today on tv that said the hormones used in milk are easily broken down by humans stomach acids and dispelled and there was nothing to worry about.

Too true and too funny

Actually, he is probably correct.

Probably.

Personally, I give my kids organic milk when it is available, and it usually is, as "probably" makes me nervous.
