This surprised me because I thought milk was alkalinizing, so I did some googling. There are different opinions out there. This is how the ARE (Edgar Cayce) website categorizes dairy foods:
ALKALINE DAIRY
Acidophilus milk
Buttermilk
Milk (raw only -- human, cow, or goat)
Whey
Yogurt
ACID DAIRY
Butter
Cheese (all)
Cottage cheese
Cream
Custards
Margarine
Milk (boiled, cooked, malted, dried, canned)
