What exactly is your point?

There are many things people eat and do that other mammals don't.

Milk is not necessary for humans. AKA kids must be given milk everyday in our schools for them to be healthy.

Its a treat and not a requirement.

Drinking milk has been around for more than long enough for (some of) us to have evolved dependence on it. Not saying that we have, but "other animals get by without it" is not a slam-dunk case.

Err, dependence? Maybe a preference, sure, but how are any humans dependent on cows' milk?
