What if cows gave root beer instead of milk?
If cows gave root beer instead of milk, one important thing I would notice is that we wouldn't have all the dairy products or foods we have today. Foods that we all love would taste very different. Every flavor of ice cream would have a root beer taste to it. Sandwiches that have cheese in them would taste very different. Imagine going to a shop and ordering a ham and root beer sub rather than a ham and cheese or going to a pizza place and ordering a root beer pizza instead of cheese. Also, imagine drinking root beer with your warm chocolate chip cookies. We would not have chocolate milk but rather chocolate root beer. Milk contains calcium which is very good for our bones and bodies. There is not much nutritional value in root beer so we would have to get our calcium and protein from some other food sources. Even everybody's favorite root beer float would be very different. What would replace the vanilla ice cream in a root beer float? It would be root beer ice cream, with even more root beer poured on top. As much as I enjoy root beer, I would not wanted it to replace milk because I enjoy eating and drinking many of the foods that contain milk.

You did a really good job answering the question. I enjoyed reading your free write and I agree that it would not be good if there was not ice cream! Really nice writing Marissa! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great free write and I like how you put nutrition facts in it as well as what your opinion is about having cows give root beer.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, marissa! I like how you gave examples of how foods would be different and how life would be different without dairy products! Great job(:
ReplyDeleteI like the way you gave your opinion on things as well as tell the facts of what the effects would be.
ReplyDeleteMarissa this is a well thought out response. You touched upon how dairy products wouldn't exist, the foods that would be changed, and the health component that is essential to our well being. I agree that I would miss milk and the dairy products that contain it! I also think that after the root bear's sugar wears off I would have a major crash.
