Good read. My mother-in-law is Abbruzzese…I’ll ask her if she’s heard of such a tradition.

Comment on Coffee - Grounds for Joy by JillyJoe

Coffee grounds are good for the garden, too. They have a highly desirable 20:1 ratio of carbon to nitrogen so are the ideal addition to your compost. Only add small amounts to your worm farm though. The acidity slows the worms right down - exactly the opposite to us.

You can put coffee grounds straight onto the garden as mulch too but beware as very fine mulches will hold a lot of water and often actually prevent the rain from getting through to the soil.

Coffee grounds are acidic so strawberries, tomatoes, blueberries, persimmons, citrus trees and acid-loving ornamentals such as azaleas & camellias will thrive on them. Tea leaves do the same thing.

This is an excellent report, but to convince even well informed consumer that ‘all milk is not same’ it will be important that our scientists probe deeper in to biochemistry of good healthy milk and show how it is as different from ‘just milk looking white fluid’ . Literally as different as cheese from chalk.
Of course entrenched business interest may not make such researches easy , but the truth must be given required scientific support to assert its conviction in favor of good milk, eggs etc for welfare of humanity.
