THE HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC Dear Friends, Listen closely. Can you hear the music? Do you recognize that singing voice? "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, A beautiful day for a neighbor, would you be mine? Could you be mine?" That's Mister Rogers! {Thanks to my friend Anthony Shale (vegi_head@yahoo.com), who constantly monitors television and radio for good news stories.} Mister Rogers knows that the way to change the world for the better is reach kids with the right message when they are young. You won't find Mister Rogers wearing a cow-milk mustache. Here's what he said to the little girls and boys watching his show this week: "I exercise and eat healthy foods. I'll show you some of them. These are all soy foods. Soybeans--you need to boil those, cook them. You can put sauce over them, like a tomato sauce. There's vegetarian-- vegetarian burgers. It's all vegetables, no meat in that at all. Of course, it's a soy food. These soybeans are already cooked. There's tofu. I eat a lot of tofu. You like it. These are all soy drinks. You can drink that right out of there, or this is like nonfat dry milk, except it's dry soymilk. You add water, and it tastes like milk. Here's something I know you'll like. I want to give you this. It's a pancake and waffle mix, but it's soy flour. You can make pancakes out of this and put oranges or berries on top. I like to keep trying to add new healthy foods all the time." Welcome to our neighborhood, Mister Rogers! __________________________________________________ Robert Cohen author of: MILK A-Z Executive Director (notmilkman@notmilk.com) Dairy Education Board http://www.notmilk.com This file: http://www.notmilk.com/forum/808.txt Do you know of a friend or family member with one or more of these milk-related problems?
