I have been amazed at the price of milk (the price of everything, actually). Every time I go to the grocery the price goes up. And up. And up. One day as I was gawking at the price, I ran into the mom of my sons classmate. We were chit-chatting about kids, school, her (4th) pregnancy, and of course the price of milk. She shared with me that her family goes through 3-4 gallons of milk a week! Holy Udders! I can’t even imagine.
Anyhow, I started thinking about how to make milk go further. I remembered hearing about watering down whole milk. Sounds crazy? Well, I’m not the only one who has thought of this because there are several articles out there about doing this to save money. I mean, it is kinda a rip off, charging the same price for skim milk as whole milk. Come on guys!
So this is what we have started doing. At first my ratio was 2:1 milk to water. I have gradually increased it to 1:1. So essentially I now get my milk for half the cost. YeeHaw!!
