Green Cravendale. Can't go back to normal milk now. I always hated that teeny tiny slightly souring smell off a two day opened milk and this stuff smells fresh as it can be for ages.

Green!!

My workplace only offer blue and red and it aggravates me to no end

Blue. One of life's biggest disappointments is being given a coffee and you realise it's made with green or even worse red.

Green only

Eranzer · 14/07/2022 18:37

Green! It's just right.
Blue is way too creamy and sweet and red is like white water.

Sanfranciscobabe · 14/07/2022 18:41

Red

Spanielsarepainless · 14/07/2022 18:44

Either!

StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind1 · 14/07/2022 18:45

Blue, always blue.

We get ours from a local farm in glass bottles, only whole milk. What do the colours mean? The milkman milk had a red top for whole milk but the supermarket is blue I think?

Blue is whole milk, green is semi-skimmed and red is skimmed.

None because they make me shit myself….

I have any milk that doesn’t come from a cow as at least they don’t contain lactose (Almond, oat, soya etc)

Is that at the supermarket? The whole milk from the milkman was definitely red.

Ontomatopea · 14/07/2022 18:51

Blue for DC, green for me

Snozzlemaid · 14/07/2022 18:51

Red. I don't like milk but can just about stand a dash of red in my tea.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 14/07/2022 18:53

Whole milk has approximately 3.25% fat. To be legally labelled 'low fat', foodstuffs must contain no more than 3%. So I'm sticking with full fat because it tastes better and doesn't need to be artificially fortified to make up for the lost vitamin D and Omega-3s

mommybear1 · 14/07/2022 19:02

Blue for DS4 green for DH and I.

Unforgettablefire · 14/07/2022 19:19

Blue, sometimes even gold. But I do like Aldis lactose free green as it's quite sweet.

DoNutSweatTheSmallStuff · 14/07/2022 19:23

Red.

Skimmed (or semi skimmed) is recommended for anyone over 5.
Still full of vitamins & minerals but less fat.

Youhaveyourhandsfull · 14/07/2022 19:25

Blue for the children and general, green just for tea.

Lifeohlifeohhhlife · 14/07/2022 19:25

Blue for the little uns. Green for us adults. Although I do use some blue when we've run out of green and it is delicious. Makes a blinding cuppa..

ouch321 · 14/07/2022 19:27

Semo skimmed milk with the green top

ouch321 · 14/07/2022 19:27

Though apparently in different countries they use other colours so it can be a bit confusing

Powaqa · 14/07/2022 19:29

Neither - we have red

Matilda1981 · 14/07/2022 19:32

Blue here! Had green pre kids but never went back after we got used to blue milk! I was brought up on a dairy farm and drank milk straight from the cows and no milk is as delicious as that tho!

luxxlisbon · 14/07/2022 19:32

Blue, anything else isn’t really even milk.

LaWench · 14/07/2022 19:33

We have Blue and Red. Blue for morning coffee and Red for tea and cereal.
