> After all, we couldn't consume milk hundreds of thousands of years ago.
But for the past thousands of years, I'm pretty sure my lineage could.

Citris? Beans? Tree syrup?
> Is half-and-half natural?
Sure is. And so is yogurt (a Turkish word, I'll have you).
> It's a bit of straw-man
I'd call it something else, completely.

Duly noted.
- SketchySeaBeast 2y agoFew thousand years, OK, but not hundreds of thousands. Coffee has only been drank for less than a thousand years. They aren't just beans, they are specific beans that undergo refinement to get them to where we want them to be. Same with maple syrup - tree sap is not the same in its natural form. You're drinking a concentrated sugar. The lines in the sand here aren't as definite as they are made out to be.
