What do you think of all the different types of milk? Omega added/ fat deleted or reduced only used A2 etc etc. What happened to just milk? When we were kids the milk was delivered by the milkman into the billy hanging on the front fence! Don't ever remember feeling sick because of what was not in the milk. It was pasturised and fresh with cream you could skim off the top. I'm not going to say 'in the good old days' but seriously there was a lot less sickness around. What do others think about the 'messing' with food?

I only buy UHT milk because I don't drink milk. UHT Milk doesn't have to be refrigerated until it is opened. It has a long "best before" date so there is none wasted. UHT Milk is processed at a much higher temperature. Becuase of a serious medical condition I buy semi-skim Devondale UHT Milk- not as much fat but much better than skim, and tastes a lot better too. Be aware that some of the cheap brands only keep for 5 days when opened (and aren't as good quality) whereas Devondale definitely keeps for 7 days. CAT17,, one problem with billy can milk. When it rained sometimes it ran off the milky's hat into your milk. My Aunty saw that happen on a few occasions.
