Milk for your coffee

Ingredients ? We try to buy our milk and half & half from a little market that carries Hewitt's brand ..

.. their milk contains : 1. milk .. half & half contains : 1 milk 2. cream No added sugars or chemicals like all the other brands. < not comparing the ultra expensive "organic" products > John T.

The date on the package is fine, as long as you don't open it. Milk, cheese, packaged meats, go way beyond the package date if they are not opened. Once you open them, then the real spoilage clock starts ticking and I don't think there is much difference between milk and half and half.

Not really true. I have had half and half go pretty much right up to the pull date. I used it all, I didn't see it go bad. I think it may have to do with the pasteurization method or it might be the disodium phosphate and sodium citrate.

I use heavy whipping cream in my coffee so go through 3 pints a week. Obviously the carton is never open long enough to spoil. Also keep my fridge at 33° F.

We go through a couple of gallons of milk every week. It never has time to go bad.
