Huh? We buy Organic specifically because it does keep so long. Just bought a half gallon earlier this week that has an expiration date nearly 6 weeks out. My wife prefers whole milk, to we get whole Organic. We're not big milk drinkers here so with the long shelf life, we aren't throwing milk away like we used to.Originally posted by: lxskllr
I'd get organic whole milk, but it costs too much, and goes bad quicker.
Sometimes I'll buy half-and-half, just to enjoy it in small shot-glass-sized portions.Originally posted by: CKent
Skim, anything else is like drinking cream, ick.

Whole milk here. Anything else tastes too diluted.
NFDM in my experience doesn't go bad. There's no spoiling issue until you reconstitute it. I do that as needed. I don't usually make a quart, but just what I'm about to use. They say it tastes better when you mix it up and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator but I'm not convinced that this is true. I only mix it up ahead of time sometimes for convenience sake.Originally posted by: lxskllr
I was just eating some cereal, and contemplating milk, wondering what everybody else gets. I buy 2% because I get on kicks where I drink a lot, but other times not so much. The 2% keeps longer than whole before it goes bad. I'd get organic whole milk, but it costs too much, and goes bad quicker.

I find that Organic milk may sit on the shelves longer because of the price so you have to pay attention to the dates. I regularly see expiration dates at or exceeding 4 weeks out.

You forgot to list dog's milk in your poll. We ran out of cow's milk yonks ago, so now we're on the emergency backup supply of dog's milk. Nothing wrong with dog's milk. Full of goodness, full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly. Lasts longer than any other milk, dog's milk.
