Dear X Marks-the-Spot-Where-I-Kick-Your-Smart-A...,
Err.. I mean... Interesting inquiry indeed. Have you considered reading a label? After the initial shock at the thought of powdered bovine, I researched the product. Powdered milk is simply a dried milk material with several additives and fortifications, which differ depending upon the brand. When a measured amount of H2O is added, a pile of powder is magically reconstituted into what I would call a milk-like substance. Not exactly the best substitute for the real thing, but for folks on a budget, or whose deviant minds delight at the image of powdered cow origins, it will suffice.
What would you do, X (whose initials are Dan Collins), if you added water to the powder and upon stirring, an actual cow formed before your very eyes? I imagine you would milk it for all it was worth. If I were you, I’d run.
~ Constance (most assuredly a solid, carbon-based life form)
I, Sherri Faye, am committed to consuming substances that are pure in form, within reason. My friend, Lori W., recently turned me on to ‘doTERRA’ therapeutic grade essential oils. Which has spurred further enthusiasm toward pursuing an holistic lifestyle for me. That said, powdered substances can be like lies - often questionable, could blow away with the wind, and definitely merit some investigation prior to swallowing. Thanks Lore!
Note: This was published as episode 30B in the NEG, the correct "Episode" number is 29b. As Episode 29a was simply a holiday advertisement for Left Field products, published on Dec. 1, 2010.
