Calcium

Isn't it strange, that the first thing people ask me when they hear I'm vegan is 'How do you get your calcium" They never ask a person who is lacto intolerance that question ;-)

From now on I'll say "Just as the cow gets is". I wonder how many will make the link between eating greens and getting calcium. A lot of people forget that calicium is a mineral and that it is in the ground. Cows, horses, sheep etc. get calcium in their bodies because they eat greens
I also wonder if people realise that humans are the only animals that drink breastmilk as adults, because that is what milk and products derived from milk is. Mamals only produce milk after giving birth, so what non vegans drink is another animals breastmilk :-D
