Ex-Moderator | milk - ? So I enjoy my tea in the morning. And I drink it with milk and sugar. So I buy a small bottle of milk once a week or so and keep it at work to use for my morning tea.
This morning I stopped at a store I don't usually stop at (I like to change it up) on my way to work to pick up milk and they had a "brand" of milk I don't usually buy. When I got to work, I saw the printed expiration date is 8/21/07. What did they do to my milk that it will last for 2 months? The most I ever see on a bottle of milk is a week and a half or so. I'm a little worried. |

Could the 8 be like, a deformed 6?!
Does it smell? That's crazy. Is it in one of those jugs where no light can get in? This one's for you. | |

Does it smell? That's crazy. Is it in one of those jugs where no light can get in? No, it's clearly printed. It appears to taste fine. And yeah, the bottle is fairly opaque with a crazy printed label on the outside. I'm gonna google it. |

We get the milk in those jugs where no light can get in, we pay a bit more for it and all, but I've never seen one that takes two months to expire. That's crazy. This one's for you. | |

They must have pasteurized the hell out of it or something! Sound sketchy...I wouldn't trust it | |

I found this pic on google and it comes from the website "foodengineeringmag.com". It does say "ultra-pasteurized" on the label. The plot thickens! |

I found this pic on google and it comes from the website "foodengineeringmag.com". It does say "ultra-pasteurized" on the label. The plot thickens! Unlike the milk I found this from the "Shamrock Farms" website 2. How can milk have an extended expiration date of up to two months? Shamrock Farms now uses a new process called ultra-pasteurization - or extended shelf life (ESL) - to produce our single-serve milks and Half & Half (32 oz. size and smaller). This simply means the milk is heated to 285º F for four seconds, as opposed to traditional pasteurization, where the milk is heated to at least 170º F for a minimum of 20 seconds. As a result of this new process and our airtight safety seal, our milk stays fresh on the shelves for twice as long. And it has allowed us to introduce Shamrock Farms milk in such exciting new places as vending machines, restaurants, theatres, baseball parks and more. Remember, as with all of our farm-fresh dairy products, once you remove the freshness seal, we recommend you enjoy our milk within seven days. | |

I found that odd. |

I loathe milk. Buy Soy. You eventually get used to the flavor. Or by Almond milk. | |

No no no. I need my calcium. It's very important. And better than taking supplements. |

No no no. I need my calcium. It's very important. And better than taking supplements. try the fortified soy milk - all the benefits without the nastiness | |
