The milk debate

[TomandJerry]

Which milk do you usually indulge in...

Full fat?
Semi skimmed?
1% fat?

And then, which bottle size do you usually try squeeze in the fridge?

For me it's 4 pint bottle semi skimmed

Thatcher stole my milk

2 pint semi.........oooer missus!

4 Pinter goes off too quick in our house, and yes, we have got a fridge, and yes, we do keep the milk in it, and yes, it is turned on.

If and when we follow the lead of the city of San Francisco and ban the use of plastic bottles ... what will we do then? Move to cartons? Or return to glass?

6 pint semi-skimmed on weekly shop. Occasionally need extra pint or 2 during the week depending how much cereal we eat.

Can't remember the last time I saw milk in a bottle, or didn't buy it in a carton.

Thatcher stole my milk

She didn't steal anything. She decided it's parents' responsibility to pay for adequate nourishment of their offspring. What I lost from my third-of-a-pint was made up for at home.
Nowadays it's a full two quart plastic bottle of whole milk from Asda for 89p. None of your whitewater for me, unless it's drastically reduced due to the use-by date!

None, I'm dairy free

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Organic semi

 

[The Clamp]

Anything except skimmed red top. I buy in Semi skimmed but will drink anything green top or above if required. Gold top at my nan's in a china cup.

4 pint semi skimmed now £1 in most supermarkets, no wonder the old milkman has virtually vanished. Up until a couple of months ago my sister in law had 3 pints a day delivered but it went to 42p pint so she stopped and went to Tesco 1/4 mile from her house to get it.

 

[Giraffe]

Breast is best.

But semi skimmed for me.

 

[symyjym]

I don't really do breakfast or lunch but I make up for it with milky coffee. Probably go through 3 pints a day of full cream and like to have 4-12 pints of stock in the freezer.

They sell milk in BAGS here, it's just weird and I can't bring myself to buy them.

To answer the question, I buy 2% (semi-skimmed) 2 litre cartons.

1% for me, if I get a wiff of full fat, I seem to want to hurl by the smell and taste.

Sainsburys used to sell milk in a bag with a jug to transfer it to but havent seen them for some time,but then again havent looked,.so perhaps that is the way forward instead of a bag of peas you get a bag of milk,.
