    Re: Milk Trivia

    I too have major issues due to trauma suffered as a child involving a cow!!!

    Vivid memories of a cow chasing me down the road at a family friends farm!! Needless to say, only being 4 at the time - it was a VERY big cow!!!

    But I do remember mum bringing home some fresh milk, and skimming the cream off the top for us.

      As a kid on the farm the start of the Great Cream War (repeated daily) was signaled by the pasturizers DING. Thus started the opening engagement of the GCW, the Ladle Battle. By rule of decree from on high (damn spoilsport adults!) we were of course only suppossed to take our fair share of cream for our morning hot chocolate. But of course being kids such was only the case when a stuporvising adult was near-by.

      By common agreement (read none of us wanted our hides tanned as had been threatened after the first spilled bucket) the Ladle Battle took place at the end of the kitchen table well away from the pasturizer and once possession of the ladle had been firmly established a secondary skirmish took place to form up the serving line behind the lucky first. Needless to say by the end of the GCW there was little, if any, cream left in the bucket. : ;D

        I would continue to use it if i could get my hands on it.
        lucinda, dont know if youre in Sydney but I recently found raw milk for sale at Frenchs Forest Organic Market on Sunday mornings. It goes under the name Cleopatras Bath Milk, sold as a cosmetic product to get around the illegality issue. The guy has been selling it there for a few months now. He also has raw cream, yogurt and cottage cheese.
