Madison Co. Virginia | I'm still milking, so I still have my own milk to drink.
The times I've drank store milk, I've not turned up my nose. It's different for sure, but I enjoy the flavor there too. I don't think I'd have any problem surviving on store-bought milk if it came down to it.
I'm guessing the main difference in store milk is the lower butterfat level. 5.0% butterfat is a world apart from 3.25%.
I would advise to find creamline milk somewhere, but I've heard some negative stories about that as well. My sister, while working in a bakery, was using creamline milk that had sat on the store shelves for over a week. She described dumping the milk into the mixing bowls, and having the cream come out as a thick paste. I suspect that sitting for a week caused extreme cream separation, which resulted in some not-so-appealing stuff. | |
