Got Milk?
So, I used to be a big 2% milk drinker in my childhood and teenage years. Since I have my own place I don't buy it much now. However, I do tend to drink flavored mill at work. Usually chocolate, strawberry, or chocolate ,alt. I HATE buttermilk with a passion. If you are a milk drinker, what's your go to?
2% from Walmart.

I love milk! I generally drink 2% but I prefer whole milk. I use it in lattes, and that's mostly how I drink it. But I also love milk with desserts as well!

While I absolutely love whole milk and 2%, my heart belongs to chocolate milk. And occasional strawberry. The only problem is I'm a little bit lactose intolerant but it's the price that must be paid.

Not really a milk drinker. Used to occasionally have a jug of skim milk in the fridge that always ended up going bad before most of it was used.
Lactose intolerant child in the house now, and the doc says that soy is the best alternative, rather than almond or lactose free or whatever. So we have some of that on hand, but no one else uses it. It does consistently get used now, and even better soy (as well as almond, but we have no reason to buy that) keeps a fair bit longer than regular dairy milk, so that's a plus.
Occasionally a carton will get shoved to the back of the fridge and go bad, but at least its rare.

I grew up having milk with every single meal as a child. We used to use 2% and then switched to skim at some point when I was still quite young. With that said, I am really not a fan of milk. Like, not even on cereal. If I'm going to drink it, it needs to be ice-cold skim, fresh out of the fridge. Or half chocolate/half skim.
I'll use soy milk for cooking and baking and stuff, but I'd prefer not to drink it. I used to like a bit of almond milk creamer in my coffee, but I'm a little bit allergic to tree nuts, so it doesn't really sit well with me.
I can't honestly say I've ever had strawberry milk, but even just the idea of it makes me gag.

I want to know more about this! Did you buy it like that? Make it yourself? I must have details, because it sounds amazing!Danadelfos wrote:Ooh, yes. I forgot I just had this great cherry cordial milk! I'm definitely a fan!
I love milk. I live alone and buy 4L jugs of milk and almost never have milk go bad. I relate to what ByeByeBrownie said - as a kid, we always had milk for supper. The rule was that we had to drink one glass at supper. I think my parents just wanted to make sure we got our calcium in. Now I drink it on my own every day at supper (and lunch too, if I'm home). My dad grew up in a city and loves milk and my mom was raised on a dairy farm and almost never drinks milk as an adult.
I often take milk with me for my morning commute. I almost never take plain white milk. I will do chocolate milk, sometimes with Turtle syrup in it, or banana milk. I remember being able to get banana syrup in the store right next to chocolate and strawberry syrup in the grocery store as a kid, but these days I buy banana milkshake powder from Amazon and it ships from the UK. I haven't found any other way to get it.

That looks so yummy. There aren't any Krogers in Canada that I am aware of. With the current border/COVID situation, I don't know if I'll be in the States at all this year, but if I do go across the line, I'll have to look. I don't think there are any Krogers near me in the States either, but I could be wrong.
