How many gallons of Milk do you go through a week?

Actually they don't press em to get the "milk" out. There is no milk to get out. The "milk" is more than likely just starches that leech out of the almonds during the process they use to make this "milk".

The way they make almonds into "Almond milk" is by soaking the almonds in a lot of water...a lot of water!

According to one source, a single almond will require about 1.1 gallons of water to grow, and one half-gallon carton of almond milk contains anywhere from 30 to a whopping 225 almonds.

Don't worry, I did the math for you, and in the most depressing word problem ever, found that this means between 33 and 248 gallons of water go into producing just a half-gallon of almond milk.

I'll let that sink in for a second, before I remind you that 99% of almonds grown in the United States are grown in California, currently one of the most drought-afflicted regions of the country. If growing one of the most water-intensive crops in one of the most water-deprived areas seems like a bad idea to you, you're absolutely right, since our nation's current rate of almond consumption will most likely far outstrip our ability to produce them by a wide margin in the coming years.

I went there in September. It was crazy humid and hot as fuck outside, but in the cave system it was super chill. Pretty cool area of the country.

The Cabelas we stopped at in Bowling Green had this giant fat guy working in the fishing department. I walked up to ask him a question, and he smelled like human feces. Like it was trapped in his clothing. The most vile customer service smell I've ever encountered.

Yeah, I went a few times when I was a kid, 3 times actually, always had a good time. And yes, once you're inside the caves, its perfectly cool
 
For 8 kids, and them some bigguns - that doesn’t seem super excessive. But that price seems kinda low. I honestly don’t know the price of a gallon here - I probably go through less than a quart a month. Seems like it always expires before I use it up. But I think a quart is around two bucks.
So someone check my math here- does that equal around eight bucks a gallon? Well, shit. That can’t be right :headscratch:
 
I've discovered that Louisiana, Alabama and Hawaii have the highest milk prices in the Nation!

:gaah:

I guess we can't produce milk as cheaply as the rest of the country. Oh the shame...
