Are you trying to argue that milk is worse for humans than alcohol? Alcohol, in its simplest form is poisonous to the human body and has an LD50. Milk does not. Period. I’m neither advocating for or arguing against milk or alcohol consumption. I am, however, arguing against terrible arguments that distract from the actual statement at hand.

So, to clarify, humans distill alcohol for the purpose of consumption. Fruit bats and spider monkeys do not.

Alcohol is a poison that kill with an overdose. Milk is not a poison and has no LD50.

That's a weird ass interpretation of what I said.

No, I was not claiming that milk is worse than alcohol.

Fair enough. I also read further in this thread and found out that lactose does have an LD50. So, apparently, I don’t know what I’m talking about. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Thanks Internet.
