Cereal Milk

[Babs]

It was about $1.50 here in Utah last year.

At the grocery store I was at on Saturday, I picked some up for $2.08, I believe.

what?? Where's Soccermom? I want to set up a mailorder deal!

Milk: The runny white excretion produced by a mammary gland.

Sausage: All of the bits of a dead animal that can not be sold as 'meat,' ground up with strong flavors to mask the underlying flavor of death warmed over.

Eggs: A chicken has its period, and we eat it.

Breakfast: The most disgusting meal of the day (but very important).

Cheese (omelet?): White runny glandular excretion made to curdle by introducing enzymes harvested from the intestinal juices of dead animals.

When you say it that way...pass the chorizo con huevos and a glass of milk!

Under two dollars??? For what - a pint?!

This reminds me of when they ask the presidential candidates to guess the prices of standard grocery items.

I bought 3 gallons for $5 at the Smith's in Farmington yesterday. We have a lot of milk drinkers in the house.

What kind of rice to you use? If it is sticky/calrose - aka okome (the "o" is necessary in this usage) - I will gladly reciprocate your well wishing. If it is not, I will just patiently ignore you.

I don't know enough about rice varieties to answer this question, I just know when rice pudding is server I want seconds!

Milk is $4 a gallon at Wal-Mart in eastern South Carolina. There aren't any mega-dairies around here.

The one thing that can be said of milk that is so cheap, is that it must have been produced cheaply... chapped utters, blood and puss, cows pumped full of hormones to make them lactate far more than nature intended.

Maybe, but it has been de-lish!

First of all, chapped udders are easily cured with Bag Balm (as are a number of other maladies, both bovine and human). Second, blood and puss usually only comes as a result of mastitis, which in turn usually only comes with incomplete or shoddy milking - and you can't sell that milk anyway; it's only good for calves.

The hormone bit is absolutely true, unless you are talking about locally produced raw stuff. Japan has mastered the art of juicing cows.

My aversion to milk in cereal came from europe. Fresh milk is tough to find at a decent price. In lieu of fresh milk, we would buy this boxed milk that wasn't required to be refridgerated until opened. It was disgusting and ultimately led to me giving up cereal (and other foods that require milk or any of its near-substitutes)

I like UHT milk. I think it has a creaminess that makes it taste good, especially when really really cold.

I recall that Pizza Hut in China was an initial flop because "pizza" was translated as "hot curdled milk product." Yummm! I'm also reminded of Jim Gaffigan bit:

"Chicken? Do you know what they do those poor animals?"

"No, but it's delicious!"
