Since I stopped eating cold cereal, my milk consumption has dropped next to nothing. The wife now buys in quart size.

 

[Maverick]

I go through a gallon of milk a week, not going to give that up as long as we have cows in the nation is still producing.

 

[jimLE]

i go through 1 and 2 gallons a week.i not only gotta have my cold cereal.but gotta have my milk n oveltine as well.

 

[KateMTx]

Does this mean we won't have any more butter? That will be sad.

for those that are able to.might think about getting milking cows.even if their the minature one's. .but that is.if you plan on continue to drink cows milk.on account price of milk might be going up once this is done n over with.

The supermarkets here sell a ton of milk. I guess we're not a big enough city to be "sophisticated" like the big cities.
But I have to say, I'm the only one in my family that still drinks milk. My wife drinks soy milk, my kids drink almond milk.

 

[jimLE]

they can keep those.

unless goats milk is better tasteing.i'll stay with cows milk.

 

[DrHenley]

The thing is, the "almond milk" you buy in the store has as little as 2% almonds in it, or 5 almonds per cup of "almond milk." Which is actually good since almonds have cyanide and drinking pure almond milk could give you cyanide poisoning.

What?? Goats milk out does cows in my opinion any day of the week and I have both. . . You obviously haven't had the opportunity to have some good goat milk .

I remember a guy from high school had goats. He would squirt the warm yellow milk directly from the udder into his mouth. Gag... I know it’s probably good but I kind of like pasturazation.

Was it a new momma? My goat milk is white.

You do realize that pasteurization actually kills off all the local benefits goat and or cow milk contains? I'll take fresh any day, just not off the teat like your friend.. Even though I clean before milking I still strain it just in case.

At that point in my life I couldn’t tell the difference in a new mama and a billy! I don’t know if it was really yellow but it wasn’t the white I was accustomed to.

I have read that, but think for commercialization pasturaziation is probably good. As far as getting used to drinking fresh milk, well if shtf happens I’m betting it will taste pretty darned good.

You'd know if he was trying to milk a billy. . . Sorry that makes me laugh. That would be a struggle on your hands, but maybe it would only be mine since they are not accostome to. My billy's are free to roam. . . my poor girls are the ones that have jobs to do,

Lol!

I grew up drinking fresh raw milk. Mom used to skim the cream off the top and make butter. At that time I hand milked the cows, don't think I could anymore. We plan on getting a milk cow soon, and I'll get an electric milker rather than milking by hand.
I remember the first time that I drank some store bought pasteurized milk. It tasted like water to me. In pasteurized milk all the good stuff is cooked out and what's left is more water than milk.
