Talk:Milk

Current wording

The article currently says "Milk quite often comes from female mammals..." Wait a second. Aren't the mammary glands of mammals the ONLY source of milk? There are other thinks, call milk, nowadays, like "oat milk", which look something like milk. But they are mere milk substitutes.

The article currently says "it was originally the source of food for young animals." Isn't milk still the food for young mammals?

The article currently says "Milk for human consumption usually comes from cows, or less commonly goats." In Saudi Arabia camel's milk is considered a delicacy. There was a trend, a few decades ago, where those willing to spend enough could buy ice cream made from human milk. Although, in North America, Mozzarela cheese is made from cow's milk, in Italy it is made from Buffalo milk.

I am going to make changes to fix these concerns. Geo Swan (talk) 05:14, 16 February 2026 (UTC)
