I just purchased a gallon of milk at Publix for $4.19 That is $1.19 more than the average cost of regular gas. By the way...I got the 1% container, not the whole milk. Therefore, the difference is actually more than $1.19 per gallon. Not that I am trying to justify gas prices, not at all! But milk
does not require refineries to be updated and it is not imported from the Middle East. What is then the excuse?
Trying to analyze the reasons for the price of milk has driven me insane. I honestly can't find a logical one. Thus, here are some off the wall possibilities:
1. COWS ARE ON STRIKE IN THE USA AND, LIKE MANY OTHER THINGS THEY DON'T WANT US TO KNOW, IT IS KEPT A SECRET.
2. EXXON AND CHEVRON, AND COMPANY, HAVE TAKEN OVER
ALL USA LIVESTOCK AND FARMS AND THEY ARE NOW SELLING US, FOR LARGER PROFIT,CAMEL MILK FROM THE MIDDLE EAST

3. BULLS ARE USING CONDOMS
4. COWS ARE BEING FED STEROIDS AND THEY ARE NOW STERILE
5. THE COW IS IN DANGER OF EXTINCTION (alligators, bears and
snakes, meanwhile, roam freely in our backyards)
6. WE ARE EXPORTING MOST OF OUR MILK TO "NEEDY"
COUNTRIES, THAT LATER ON WILL SEND US IN EXCHANGE A
FEW TERRORISTS.
7. WE SHIP AN AVERAGE OF 500,000 GALLONS OF MILK A MONTH
AT A NOMINAL COST TO IRAQ TO FEED OUR TROOPS. TO
OFFSET THE LOSS IN PROFIT WE ARE PAYING FOR THE
DIFFERENCE.
8. PUBLIX IS RIPPING US OFF
9. THERE IS A HIDDEN TAX IN THE MILK THAT WE STILL DON'T
KNOW ABOUT.
10 EVERY BIG CORPORATION IN THE USA DOES WHATEVER IT
TAKES TO SATISFY THEIR GREED WITH LARGER PROFITS, AND
WE DON'T HAVE A REAL CONSUMER PROTECTION AGENCY TO
PROTECT US FROM THAT.

Hey! Veuve Clicquot! I saw that on the milk bottle. Nice, of you! We gave you that bottle of champagne for New Year's Eve, and instead of cracking that open to share with us.....we got that cheap Freixnet instead!!!!!!!
How about that! The bottle is still in the refrigerator. Maybe next Xmas.?
Can't wait for your next topic...go gonzo
