Firstly, the California cows would lose by a mile against the Kiwi cows. Hormones, hormones hormones.

Secondly? I can't wait to see how they try to present a Kiwi cow accent. Especially because "milk" is probably a necessary word in the script. And possibly "happy". Heh. Will it be subtitled?

Of course they are filming in New Zealand where animals are not subjected to hormones in their diet.

Look at the condition California is in. The people that live in California are not happy about it and now it seems neither are the cows. We've gone to far down the road to perdition.

Try Cabot Vermont cheese.(Ca­bot CO-OP)
The milk comes from well treated cows.
We dont need cheese and milk from way across the country.

Cows aren't that happy in California­. I've worked at dairies and have seen (and smelled) the conditions they live in. It really makes you think twice about drinking milk.
