I was in the middle of making dinner when this happened. I'm grateful I poured it into a measuring cup first. Thankfully I don't live too far from another source.

I remember milk staying good almost a week past its expiration date when I was a kid. Boy have the times changed.

I know these solutions cost more but if you're having trouble with frequent spoilage this might save you $$

  1. For cow milk, try and buy organic in a container that blocks light. I find these to have extra long expiration dates compared to plastic jug regular milk... Often 2-3 months from purchase and it is often unspoiled past that.

  2. Try unsweetened original almond milk. I find it hard to tell the difference and the almond milk I buy can last 4-5 months in my fridge if I don't use it sooner.

Time to go to the farm shop and get a bottle from the vending machine!

I’m not sure why but for me it seems like milk goes bad faster if you open and use it but then leave it unused for many days even if it's before the expiration date.

Don't you have ultra high heated milk? It keeps fresh for several months at room temperature as long as it's unopened. It usually tastes a little less great than normal milk but that's especially not much of an issue if you use it for baking or cereals.

I'm baffled that America insists on selling milk by the gallon. That's so much milk to finish after opening.

The maximum size we used to get while I was growing up where I live was 1 litre. Then came the big milk, 1.5 L. Now we have this even bigger one that's 1.75 L, I think. Seems like it's going to converge on 2 L. 😄

I can go through a whole gallon by myself before it goes bad. Now, I might just barely be able to do it most times, but still. Between cooking, drinking, and cereal, I can usually find a way to use it all. I mostly drink it though.

There one I’m working at is soon to switch to delivering their own milk, rather than t g Lee. I’m expecting this is happen more in our area going forward. Their dc is further away and the turnaround time on processing will be longer.
