I found this great product last night. No, I don't sell them just sharing. LOL But Kristen has never liked plain milk, some chocolate but not alot. Well last night at the fireworks the milk booth at this product called Sipahh milk straws. They are hollow straws with little beads of flavour inside and as you suck the milk through the straw it picks up the flavour. They are only 10 cal. so not adding too much sugar to the mix but she had 2 milks which is more than she's had in the last 3 weeks. She had chocolate with chocolate milk (super charged chocolate), then she had caramel with plain milk. Her friend had cookies and cream with plain milk. They also had strawberry and vanilla.
They are pretty new here so I'm not sure where we'll find them. Hopefully most of the big supermarkets will carry them. Then she can get plain milk at school (she gets sick of chocolate milk all the time) and give her some variety. I think they are Australian and it said they do have them in the US. There is also banana, chocolate mint and green apple floating around somewhere. Green apple milk to me sounds gross but Kristen thought it sounded great. LOL
So if your kids are so-so on milk this might be the way to get them to drink more. The straw is good for about a cup of milk, the small individual cartons.

Just wondering for both of you--are your hormone-free milks from a local creamery or is it a national brand?
I've been buying only Kleinpeter milk (out of Baton Rouge) for almost 2 years now because they are hormone-free. I pay $1.50 more per gallon, but feel it's worth it given how much milk Aly drinks. (She only drinks water, milk, & occasionally Sprite & lemonade.)
But I haven't seen any national brands that offer hormone-free.
Also, they put a disclosure on the label that government studies show "no significant difference".... I think the govt needs to re-study! I can't see how it makes no difference!
I had a teacher in high school....lol. The boys...especially the basketball players, had HUGE feet!!!! She would make a comment often about it being the hormones in cows and them eating the meat & drinking the milk. It was really funny because it was her...she was so dramatic about everything!!! And the way she said it was just hilarious!

Ha, well my son drinks almost NO milk (literally maybe a cup a week or less in a bowl of cereal) and he has enormous feet!
"I honestly feel that hormones in our milk/chicken/meat/egg supply is one (of several) reasons that girls are maturing and starting puberty at earlier ages now. "
EXACTLY, which is why I think the govt needs to do MORE STUDIES!
