Milk In Bsas

Drink warm milk with sweet & low sweetener..!! tates great
 
Is a matter of getting use to it not of quality, i like milk from Argentina and take me time to adjust to the milk here in europe, i feel to heavy after drinking milk here. The full fat in Argentina is no so fat as here, i cannot drink to much milk here without feeling heavy and bad from my stomach. The watery consistence specially of the low fat one is not because is mixed with water is simple because they take away the fat, for you to compare i have found that the green low fat milk in Argentina is equal to the pink low low fat here in Ireland. Here you have 3 different fat consistency, full fat milk Blue bottle, Low fat Milk green bottle, very low fat milk Pink bottle, the last one is the most similar taste of the low fat in Argentina that i usually drink there, and is the one i-m drinking here. What you find taste weird is the lack of fat. Btw guys there is a reason why raw milk is ilegal.
 
Sorry, I don't believe the lack of fat theory. You can taste a certain powderiness in the skimmed milk which makes me think it's reconstituted. Like the dehydrated and reconstituted canned peas - tried them once, never again!!
 
Another milk moan. I've tried buying the sachets (well within the sell-by date), but often when you snip the corner, a nasty gassy smell emerges and the milk just doesn't smell fresh. Anyone else have this problem?
 
Thank God it's not just me. I used to buy a gallon of organic skim milk at the grocery store I worked at when It would go on sale and drank it like a cat.
My biggest complaint regarding milk here are as follows:

1. Milk is naturally a liquid and should therefore never become a solid
2. The milk is too full of cream/fat. Even the green/white bags I feel like I'm drinking those little coffee creamers in tan colored plastic
3. The taste. It all tastes/smells strange. Doesn't seem to matter which company, what color, it's just weird.

I've had limited success with the green 1L bottle that's always kept cold at Coto or YPF. Though when it gets down to the last 10ml that foam is gross.

lol, talk about the definition of 1st world problems. :rolleyes:
 
Milk talk.

The reason milk tastes different is because apparently (what I've seen), most milk is labeled "larga vida". That means it's ultra pasteurized. That's what makes it last so long on the shelves and without being in the fridge. It's a process called UHT. The result is milk that does in fact taste different, there's a sort of aftertaste and some kind of burnt out feeling. It's entirely normal and it's very common in many places around the world. It has nothing to do with quality.

We're all used to fresh milk. The one that goes bad in a week or so. UHT milk lasts a lot longer unopened but like frozen fruit goes bad very quickly, UHT milk goes bad very soon after you open it, in fact the label says to toss it after 3 days. I could never kill the whole gallon so I used to be a half gallon kind of guy. I do miss my 2% half gallon. I've been buying the green La Serenisima bottle. It's labeled larga vida and 1.5%. I really tried to find milk that didn't say larga vida and I couldn't. If it doesn't say larga vida and/or ultra pasteurizada it should be fresh and the funny taste won't be there. Let me know if anyone finds some.
 
Try the less known brands of sachet milk. I find Vea full fat tastes least long life to me. Failing that be philosophical and celebrate that you have survived the age when milk drinking was non optional... ;)
