Milk: what kind do you drink?

[ondarvr]

None

 

[gman2304]

I’ll be the outlier here. 1/2 and 1/2 in my coffee and 100 proof whole milk.

Skim exclusively. With my tree bark cereal.

What a strange statement. I never heard of milk beings solely a children's drink.

I also like my coffee black, with no added pumps of chemical flavoring, as well as cold, not ice-cold, beer. A strong double IPA, fruity New England IPA, Scotch Ale, etc all taste like, well, coldness, not beer when they're too cold (i.e., freezing or just below). I like my beer at around 40F. I know that's still too cold for some Europeans, but it's just right for me; a good combination of tasty and refreshing.

Speaking of warm beer: when I was in Kenya, they drank their Tuskers at ROOM temperature. I tried it to be polite, but it was terrible and foamy. They all laughed and provided us with the expected ice-cold ale, to our satisfaction, considering it was hotter than Hades there!

Ahhh nothing like the correct temperature IPA! NE cloudy? Yes Sir, I'm in. Black coffee only for me and I like it iced as well as hot. The stronger the better. If it isn't coffee, tea, beer, wine, Polar seltzer, it's water.

Chocolate, but only as a treat when I get a sweet craving.

Kindred spirit here. Half and half in coffee and that’s it. A glass of of milk? No way. But if I run out of half and half then ok with the whole milk. Wife drinks skim milk. Ugh!

Well, I might turn you off, but my wife turned me on to Viet coffee, which is slow filtered to be SUPER strong, with sweetened condensed milk added to cut the bitterness. Heaven.

I need to dig out my bur grinder, make my own course ground and French press some. I might do that tomorrow. Oh, how the bean oils coat your tongue when they’re not filtered through paper! Mmmm

 

[Oildudeny]

Usually lactose free

 

[gregk24]

Whole organic.

 

[Dinoburner]

1% here, Sams quite often is out of it. Aldi`s usually is stocked so no need to be without. We use whole milk when making chowders along with condensed or some half and half.

Send the wife into the yard and tell her to milk the cow or goat. When she's done, she'll grab some eggs from the hen house too.

Sorry, if its not from a mammary gland, its not milk. Squeeze an orange or fruit for juice. I am not sure what you can call the concoction from various seeds/nuts/grains. Sorry, its not milk. Nut blend water???

 

[AutoMechanic]

Whole only that’s the only kind that isn’t nasty. It’s a shame I have to buy my own milk because my dad only will drink 2% or butter milk and my mom can’t drink milk she can only use it in cereal for some odd reason. Both of those are gross I used to be able to drink 2% but as I got older it started seeming like it was clumpy like cottage cheese so I said no thanks. And my taste buds changed I guess. I’ll drink chocolate milk too and strawberry and orange.

 

[Oillover]

Whole Goat milk, of the low temp pasteurization variety (more active bacteria which is good for the gut and aids in digestion).

Since I’ve lost a lot of weight and been eating healthier I drink oat milk. Almond milk I tried, couldn’t stand the chalky taste. Even gave up the occasional buttermilk I love. What is the milk of choice in your household?

Soy milk is really good. I also drink almond milk.
You can make your own almond milk easy : just soak 1 cup of almonds over night, then blend them in 4 cups of water. Add dates to sweeten. It's much better than store bought.

I quit cow milk b/c it causes mucus production.

 

[Lubener]

Too bad you can't get the real whole stuff like decades ago. Where you get the milk in a glass jug (delivered) and the cream rises to the top to put in your morning coffee.

Whole milk is the only way, whole milk kefir has changed my life too

While I like the taste, there is something about kefir that just does not agree with my stomach, and it took me a while to realize it. I thought kefir was the cure.

If it had clumps, it sounds like it may have already gone bad. Keep any milk long enough, and it'll start getting clumpy.
