I think they've started watering the milk down.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

I'm a milk baby. Always have been, always will be. Having been born in the middle of dairy country (there was a grazing field on the other side of my back yard fence for eighteen years) I've had the pure product straight from the tap, so I know what it's SUPPOSED TO taste like.

These days I still drink a gallon every two days, but I limit myself to 2%. I'm used to it, and I know the taste well.

A couple weeks ago my 2% began tasting like Skim milk (basically little more than colored water). And it wasn't just one gallon- I've drank about five gallons of it and it all tastes like I'm getting ripped off.

Perhaps if I switch back to whole milk I'll be getting my 2% back?

I wonder.

1. milk

2. When I was a kid, milk changed its flavor in the spring

fresh spring pasture grass was the culprit (so we were told)...

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

3. I've lived in this area for 8 years.

This is the first time I've noticed ANY change in taste.

[madinmaryland]

4. Wow! I drink maybe a gallon a year!

:shrug: Just not a milk drinker. Now I do drink a gallon of water every two days!!

[truedelphi]

8. Have you been noticing how they are

Watering down the water lately??

[madinmaryland]

13. Well, that's kind of self-inflicted.

With all of the scotch showing up in my water!!

:hic:

[truedelphi]

15. Heh Heh

That was Very good.

[lost-in-nj]

7. Is that percentage of pus, or what?

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

9. Oh, yes, I've heard about that theory.

Well, feel free to go for it if it makes you feel better. As for me, I'll continue chuggin' down my moo. I've been doing it almost 53 years and it hasn't infected me with anything yet...

:shrug:

[RadiationTherapy]

10. It is not a theory; there is pus in all mainstream milk. You can not get "infected" from the pus

since the milk is pasteurized.

The pus comes from infections caused by being hooked up to a milk machine so long and so often.

It's cool, the FDA has a "limit".

[bicentennial_baby]

11. It's no theory...It's from the mastitis that cows get in their udders

It's in all milk. I grew up on a dairy farm, and my Ex was a milker at another one for several years. Oh, the stories I've heard...No wonder I ordered vegan mozzarella this week.

14. The milk in Calfornia tastes like it's half water (except the organic ones)

and the milk from Alta-Dena dairy is still pretty good.

[yellowdogintexas]

16. Get your milk @ Braum's. Very good quality milk. Even the fat free has body

and a good taste.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

20. GMTA.

I just posted the same thing. I'm from OKlahoma a few miles from the Braum's Dairy. There is nothing like it.
And if you can't find a Braum's, Target's Market Pantry Milk is EXCELLENT.

17. Growing up, I used to drink one gallon of whole milk every day.

Sometimes it went from the cow to the bucket, and from the bucket into me.

Store bought milk never tasted the same. But I still liked it as long as it was whole milk. I never liked the taste of any reduced fat milk.

Then I became alergic to milk. That sucked for a long, long time.

18. We get our milk in glass bottles. You should see the muscles I've

developed from years of hauling those wire crates with two gallon of milk in each hand from the car to the house.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

19. Find a Braum's.

THey concentrate their milk. Their Skim tastes like 2%.

21. I drink soy milk n/t

[RebelOne]

22. Same here. Silk is the best. Tastes better than milk.

[kentauros]

23. I like soymilk

but prefer ricemilk. Often I will buy both and then mix them.

Haven't yet tried cashew milk, but I used to make my own almond milk. It was yummy!

[crispini]

25. Switch to the soy!

It's yummeh! (And these days, it's the same price as or cheaper than milk!)

[asteroid2003QQ47]

26. Get milk here.

Had one when my kids were growing up. After the milk cooled in a basin all night the layer of cream could actually be griped between thumb and index finger and lifted partially off the milk!
The milk, butter and buttermilk biscuits can't be beat!

Now I drink Helios Plain Kefir and my wife drinks Silk soy and Blue Diamond Almond which I sometimes enjoy too.
