Yes and another benefit: I’m a single person who doesn’t drink milk hardly at all but with the occasional cereal bowl or cooking ingredient. Organic milk lasts LIFETIMES longer than your typical milk. I think the longest my organic milk has gone is like 2 months. So if you don’t drink milk alot, this is actually a better more cost-effective option.

My daughter happens to be sensitive to dairy, so we she does not get milk at all- even if she were not I do not think cows milk is necessary- this idea is pushed by marketing campaigns. if calcium is an issue, look to foods (not dairy based) you will be surprised how many foods contain calcium- and it is even more easily assimilated http://www.fruitsandveggiesmorematters.org/?page_id=1440.

Doreen: I totally agree with you! We recently made the switch to organic milk for many of the reasons you highlighted but also because it just flat out tastes better than the non-organic variety.
