My thinking would be that organic milk producers would start by trying to match their product to the original product they are trying to play substitute to. Similar to diet colas trying to replace their non-diet counterparts. Conversely, milk probably would have started out as organic and producers would have added hormones without turning consumers away from the taste they were accustomed to.Justin M Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06990658017459237627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20142791.post-28781605078553581432008-04-14T12:42:00.000-04:002008-04-14T12:42:00.000-04:00Just to clarify my point, your 'opponent' very wel...Just to clarify my point, your 'opponent' very well may have some memory of normal milk, but that wouldn't necessarily give him an advantage in discrimination.

This phenomenon is commonly used as a "natural" way to measure long term memory in a variety of animals, from mice to birds. I'm not as familiar with the human research, but I would bet that a lifetime of "normal" milk drinking would do little to hinder your discriminatory tasting abilities.<BR/><BR/>I'll avoid the whole organic debate, but the raw milk debate is kind of interesting.
