Milk

Kapitan · 03-04-06, 09:34 AM

In england we have a colour coded system to tell us what milk is what like for example, Blue top is pasturised and green top is semi skimmed.

what do they use in other places of the world ?

U.S.A.: Red cap is whole milk, Blue is 2% fat, Pale Blue is 1%. Or maybe 2% is green-I never drink the watered-down stuff myself.

I buy 2% and I've seen green and purple depending on the store.

All of the milk that I have seen uses red for whole, blue for 2%, purple for 1% and yellow for skim (they call that nonfat now). I drink skim, just in case anyone is taking a survey or felt a general interest in my dietary habits.

I also prefer uncooked spinach.

I know it is one strange subject but now i have been confirmed a job with clyde marine i want to know what sort of milk is what since i drink lots of it, cause i can only drink certain types.

The pasturised one makes me sick the UHT dont go there so i only drink milk shakes or green top semi skimmed.

I'm a light blue cap drinker. I don't like the reds and greens. You have to watch those people.

My milk is green. I'm clinging to the thin hope that it's because St. Patricks Day is around the corner.

I prefer the whole milk...even better is when I could get it straight from the container at a dairy farm I worked at over a summer!!! It's not milk if you can't shake the cream. The skim milk is pink here and we even have 1/2% which is a mustard yellow color.

Iceman · 03-05-06, 12:26 AM

Used to drink the Whole ..think had a red cap but wifie weaned me off that ... the 1% which I am used to now has a dark blue cap...think the color thing is by brand....if I drink whole milk now I can really taste the fat.

Mooooo....I love milk.

I refuse to drink milk unless it came straight from a cow, preferably still warm. Yea, yea, I know about the whole bacteria thing, and 'meh' to that. No processed milk for me, thank you. :hmm:

Kapitan · 03-05-06, 03:32 AM

Pasturised milk makes me sick and UHT milk gives me the two bob bits so i only drink green top semi skimmed milk which is white.
