Why DairySucks.com exists

To expose the reality behind the dairy industry and to counter the fairy-tale version of livestock farming fed to children in classrooms, commercials, cartoons and neighborhood yard ornaments.

From happy cows in rolling pastures to milk-mustache ads, dairy has been sold as wholesome and necessary. The truth tells a very different story — one of intolerance, deception, taxpayer subsidies, disease, and cruelty. Below are the key reasons this site exists, along with resources to learn more.

1. Intolerance

Over 65% of the world’s population is lactose intolerant, meaning they cannot properly digest dairy products after infancy. Yet milk still sits on the food pyramid as if it were essential.

2. Deception

Dairy has been hidden in processed foods—from crackers to bread—to keep people artificially tolerant beyond childhood. The system ensures demand by manipulating biology instead of letting nature take its course.

3. Lobbying & Propaganda

The dairy lobby spends millions influencing U.S. nutrition guidelines, forcing milk into schools, and shaping public perception. Cartoon cows and “Got Milk?” ads were never about health—they were about sales.

4. Taxpayer Burden

Nearly 40% of dairy farmers’ income comes directly from taxpayers through subsidies. That means every glass of milk is artificially cheap because you already paid for it in your taxes.

5. Disease & Health Risks

Dairy has been linked to acne, cancer, heart disease, and chronic inflammation. Despite being marketed as “building strong bones,” countries with the highest dairy consumption also have the highest osteoporosis rates.

Cows are artificially inseminated, calves are taken from their mothers within hours, and animals live short, painful lives. Beyond cruelty, dairy contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and water pollution.

7. Cognitive Dissonance

We teach children to love animals while feeding them dairy that requires killing calves, abusing mothers, and destroying the planet. This dissonance is exactly why DairySucks.com exists: to expose the gap between the stories we tell and the reality we hide.

Final Word

If you love animals, care about human health, or value honesty in what we teach children, the case is clear for dairysucks.com
