@herenow
just saying. -
I cannot find any store bought chocolate milk that does not have any carrageenan in it. (I'm in the US).
Anybody that knows a brand please let me know.
I do make my own without but I would also like to be able to just buy it. -

Many food additives used by manufacturers are legal in the U.S. but banned in Europe. Common additives include:
Titanium dioxide, a whitening agent added to products like skim milk.
Brominated vegetable oil, added to citrus drinks like Mountain Dew.
Potassium bromate, which can strengthen bread dough.
rBST, a hormone to increase milk production in cows.
Artificial trans fats, which makes liquid vegetable oil more solid and shelf stable.
Many synthetic dyes, used as food coloring. -
@Corngold Thanks for the recipe. It came out great! I added cocoa powder to regular milk. Recommended

@herenow yep, because they don’t benefit from sick people like the US does.

That's news to me.

@Luke largely because we have free health care, it’s a weight on the system if everyone’s sick. US profit massively from sick people.

The health care isn't free. The state just acts as the facilitator. It's still a huge redistribution of money from ordinary people to big pharma via taxes and insurance. Also, the health care system gets privatized more and more (at least in UK or Germany) and hospitals are pretty open about their system of having as many sick people as possible to cover costs. My father is on some sort of supervisory board in a hospital and he openly talks about how surgeons are encouraged to perform completely unnecessary operations and procedures to extract as much money as possible from insurance companies. And hospitals still close all the time because the didn't make enough people sick. Doctors also prescribe medication for high blood pressure and “high cholesterol” to healthy people, which is what makes them ill in the first place, just like in the US.
Every bullshit from the USA will eventually be copied by European lemmings.
The EUSSR bans some bad substances, but they also ban the good substances so that you have to buy from mafia-like companies to get everything that's positive to health from a metabolic standpoint through customs.

@herenow awesome. Mine was a little light on flavor. I think mixing coco and sugar w milk would be better.

@happyhanneke, do you have a Whole Foods near you? I was just there picking up some Alexandre Family Farm yogurt and noticed that the brand also makes a clean chocolate milk:

@happyhanneke Chocolate milk is really easy to make yourself. Just mix a small amount of cocoa powder and sugar with a tiny amount of milk first so it dissolves without clumps, then mix that into the rest of the milk.
