Re: Holiday Food NOW milk

I don't necessarily think of milk forming curds and whey as spoiling. It is, after all, totally organic.

Gee that does sound tasty. Seriously, maybe Northern Europe was the only
place w/ a cool enough climate that milk didn't spoil in 15 1/2 seconds.
Anywhere warm, you have to drink it fresh squeezed as it were, or it
would spoil. Reckon?

USDA says cheese making originated in the Middle East. Travelers toting
milk in skins made from the stomachs of camels. Residual rennet in the
stomach curdled the milk.

Quite frankly, I don't know, and I don't know if any studies have been
done. Your theory makes a lot of sense, though. Milk (of any sort) is
food for babies of whatever species, so after weaning, most have no
exposure to it. It may be that only in Northern Europe did peoples
exploit unmodified milk as a food source beyond infancy.

populations? Is it because once they are weaned from mother's milk,
there isn't a steady supply of it...so they rapidly lose whatever

Most folks of northern European heritage can drink milk throughout
