Broccoli lobby propaganda. How much is big lentil paying you Mic?

I was very annoyed by an article I saw awhile back entitled “Vegans, just let us have our dairy.”

The author claimed dairy protects against heart disease and dairy production is environmentally friendly.

Biggest joke of the century

I gotta give the dairy industry credit, their working really hard to keep their industry alive lol

[dillene]

Right, Mic- as if you are not deep in the pocket of Big Cauliflower. We can see right through your cruciferous perfidy!

I’m literally obsessed with your videos now that I’m vegan. I’ve been vegan for about a month now and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made.. especially since I have a son now. Makes me feel good every time you come out with a video that vegan is such a healthy choice. Would you ever do a meet and greet?

It actually is a dairy industry funded study as well. I dug more into their conflicts and those organizations listed have major dairy industry clients including Dannon.

I like full fat walnuts and pumpkin seeds. :-)

Hey Mike, love your videos! Could you do a video on the health benefits of herbs/spices?

[CraftyVegan]

I remember a campaign not too long ago that said that a glass of milk in the morning aids in weight loss.... I suppose that's technically correct for a lot of people, since lactose intolerance (at least the variety I dealt with) would definitely cause loss of weight.... maybe not the kind they meant,

[davidcyrusmusic]

I've been waiting and hoping for this video. Thank you!

[johnsmiths]

Mic is the man! You made me go from vegetarian to vegan so thank you so much!

[DimaRakesah]

*whispers* "Cause heart disease" lol Mic I love your humor

[phatvegan]

When is the world going to face facts? Just six months ago I was a meat eater. Eventually you have to accept reality and move forward.

Thank you for helping your viewers develop the literacy to be able to think about these topics and respond to myths disseminated to the public. Complex stuff but you break it down beautifully. Love your work :)

[oliviafagin]

Your depth of research does not go unappreciated. Keep making genuinely informative videos, Mic!

[bobbiejames]

Thank you, thank you! I'm so excited to finally find a response to that study! After searching for about a week on sites like PCRM and Dr. Greger and finding they haven't responded yet, it occurred to me that you were right on top of current issues. You didn't disappoint! I have already shared this with two people who wanted to have a response, and will share on FB as well and in my monthly local vegan newsletter.

I will stick to my dairy free milks. Ones that won't block my bowels.
