If you leave the last of the (local dairy's organic) milk in the fridge from Wednesday to Monday, it will go sour.

If you are smarter than me, you won't have to learn this the hard way. Bleah.

Check it out! If your fridge door doesn't close properly and you put eggnog in the door, it will go bad! But Eggnog is kind of thick so you might not notice, and might drink it anyway! And then wake up at 2am wondering if you're having an appendicitis attack, or if God hates you, or what, and crawl desperately into the bathroom, where very not fun things proceed to happen for quite a while.

Oh dairy products! When they go bad, they attack.

That's one of the good things about the Lactaid milk products: they last longer. [My mother and brother are lactose-intolerant, my father and I are not.]

I've started drinking soy milk, not because I dislike or am allergic to regular milk in any way, but simply because it doesn't go bad nearly as quickly.

And even with organic milk, it's still pasteurized so it rots rather than actually going truly sour. Sour milk I can use. Rotted milk? Not so much. Blech.

I am not a habitual milk drinker so I stock dry and canned milk for emergency cooking purposes.
