I'm Canada, milk comes in bags. This could also be powdered milk.
You drink powdered milk? We pretty much only use it in baking. It tastes off. Do you do something to make it more palatable?
The trick is to make it with milk instead of water.
That's how you get more milk per your milk!
And it makes a very nice white sauce liquid. That’s what happens when the summer camp gets both liquid and powdered milk on subsidy. I should make yogurt out of that blend……..brb.
The real trick is to start giving it to your kids when they are really young and never give them real milk. That way powdered milk tastes normal and real milk tastes weird to them. Or at least that's what my parents tried to do.
I was raised on skim milk. My mother was always on a diet, so we had a lot of diet-type foods in the house.
Skim milk is practically just water with a little bit of milk flavoring. It was my refreshing go-to drink on hot summer days. I drank almost nothing but skim milk all through my childhood. It was my favorite drink.
The first time I had 2% milk, I thought it was melted ice cream. It was so thick and creamy! I had no clue that it was "normal" milk.
Also, I learned in adulthood that milk makes your bones brittle. That whole "milk does a body good" thing was just advertising, not scientific fact. It doesn't strengthen bones, it just makes them more likely to break. Makes sense; I survived off the stuff for years of my childhood and I've broken 9 bones in my life.
That's not strictly true. While the whole "milk makes your bones strong" line was found to be greatly overstated, there's still a lot of calcium in milk and combined with vitamin D that makes for stronger bones. Most importantly exercise improves bone density, so maybe it's true if you chug a bunch of milk while completely sedentary.
You can't drink powdered milk, you gotta eat it
Hey! Don’t speak for all of Canada! Milk comes in containers on the west coast, just as the universe intended.
That's not entirely true. BC does plastic jugs, I had no idea milk came in bags out east til I went to visit family.
Yes I see never seen them in BC. I think Alberta in the 80s is the first place I saw them as a kid. It was trippy as milk was in cartons or cans (Pacific Condensed Milk) but never bags. I found it messy...
I had no idea what to do with a bag of milk. I did what OP did in the pix and poured it from the bag to the jug....and promptly got reemed by my aunty.....
Even just cutting the corner of the bag seemed messy but it was the preferred method?
Seems like you're supposed to put the bag in the jug, and then cut the corner. Still seems weird to me.
