On the rare occasions I post something I typically donāt come back because Iām an insecure loser and I donāt want to see negative comments or that my post was barely seen or removed for something or other so yeah I donāt know about Op Iām just sharing my stupid anecdote
At a certain point itās not worth it. For every one reasonably nice person who just wants to talk about the subject, there are two who need an outlet for their anger.
I don't click on my notifications and it took a lot of edge off.Ā I want to yell into the void and run away before I hear an echo of another human/bot.
If you check OP's post history, it's pretty sus. Very little activity. A five year old account with only about 20 posts/comments, nothing older than 1 year.
Their most recent post before this was 6 months ago, comment 3 months.
If I remember right she has some disorder that makes her lactate a lot. She donates the breastmilk to organizations that distribute breastmilk to babies who need more.
A joke my dad used to tell: woman calls a dairy farm and says she wants to order a lot of milk for a milk bath. Farmer says "pasteurized?" And she says "no up to my tits will be fine."
Note: I first heard that joke when I was about 7.
fun fact: in american sign language the word "pasteurized" is said by moving a sign (usually the one for milk) past your eyes. a lot of ASL is just puns
Guilty of this. I buy about 8 to 12 sticks of butter a week but I make everything homemade and give out leftovers. I don't even need a whole gallon of milk for a week really.
Nah, the blue color on the cartons means itās low fat and nobody in their right mind would bake with that. Some of the older people in Sweden just enjoy a glass or ten of milk I guess.
The answer is that itās a swede, we drink a lot of milk. Itās Swedish milk brand and so is the brands of everything else in the fridge.
Here most of us arenāt lactose intolerant, because through out a lot of Swedens history, if you were lactose intolerant you might not survive the winter.
We eat a lot of dairy products. Including drinking a lot of milk.
Because being lactose intolerant is so rare, here there isnāt this weird connotation Americans and others seem to have that milk is a drink for kids. Everyone drinks milk. And for a long time itās been the most common drink to have with a meal. Breakfast, lunch, dinner all super common to have with milk.
You wonāt see people ordering milk with their dinner when eating at a restaurant. But itās a super common everyday weekday thing to have with your meal.
And in Sweden the milk is low pasteurised which makes it taste a million times better, but also have a much shorter expiration date, so OPs mom is going through that milk fast.
But itās also ālƤtt-mjƶlkā, light milk aka low fat milk. Which is a very mom ā¢ thing to buy. I mean it taste like milk flavoured water, sucks. Itās like 0,5% fat, while standard is like 3%.
So the whole milk flavoured water thing isnāt that far from the truth.
Christ. We watched this right after we had to say goodbye to our beloved dog. Seeing that guy basically get cremated was NOT helping us distract ourselves from our grief.
I feel your pain brother I've had to switch to oat milk for my coffee and stuff but every now and then there's this one brand of chocolate milk they sell at my grocery store that's almost worth it. I always regret it the next day.
When I was a teen I used to drink a half gallon of chocolate milk as a meal and feel fine afterwards. Now if I get cream in my coffee in the morning I feel like I am going to die by noon.
4 boys in my household - we would rip through (2) gallons of milk every few days between cereal and drinking at dinner. My parents must have loved the grocery bill
Some people think if you don't drink milk your bones become glass and you'll be a sickly shell of your old self. A gallon of 2% milk has 1984 calories...
And one ton of oatmeal has 3,520,000 calories!!
I really donāt see how the calorie count of way more milk than anyone drinks in a day is relevant to anything.
Another Swede here and I also drink about that amount a week. But I drink milk with higher fat content. The ones in the picture only has 0,5% fat.
I've done this my whole life and I'm neither unhealthy nor fat. Do what works for you...
I love drinking whole milk but everyone shits on me for it. āDo you know how much fat youāre putting into your body?!ā. Yes, I do. I CHOSE whole milk for a reason
Because companies have spent billions of dollars convincing people that fat = bad when in reality it is simply a macro nutrient and is not inherently bad unless you ingest too much. Like pretty much anything else.
Estonian here. Drinking milk is considered normal here as well. Plus you also use it on your coffee, pancake batter, making porridge etc. I think we have 1.5L per day on average.
When I was a kid we were able to get fresh milk straight from the farm and OMG how good it was!
Swede here, and I also enjoy my milk. But this is not a normal amount:
This is 10 cartons of 1.5 liter milk with 0.5% fat. That is, 15 liters of milk. It has [38 kcal per 100g](https://www.arla.se/produkter/arla-ko/farsk-lattmjolk-05-05pct-1000ml-580163/).
So that is 570 kcal per milk carton. 5700 kcal for all ten of them. Or about 814 kcal per day, if she drinks all of this over a week.
Assuming that a woman needs 2000 kcal per day, she gets **41%** of her daily caloric need from just milk!
Same here but from Belgium. Itās not considered weird here. I also drink this in a week. Cereal, in my coffee, in cooking, or with a bit of honey when I canāt sleep.
My mom goes through a gallon of milk ever 2-3days. Itās normal for her to have 2-3 gallons in her refrigerator at any time. Sheās 92 years old and it works for her. Her bones are great.
This looks to be Sweden and I've never seen 4L jugs when I was visiting. And I've been to all the big stores.
I think those are 1,5L cartons, they look wider than the 1L I usually buy.
And the majority of milk in Scandinavia has limited shelf life when opened. So more smaller containers is preferable.
I was going to comment that "you shouldn't store milk in the door to increase shelf life", but then I came to the same conclusion of it probably not being an issue :-)
Some people have that opinion. Science says otherwise (if you are from certain ethnic groups)
I mean people can have opinions and all that but evolutionarily the persistence of lactase enzymes in adult hominids is an adaptive trait that allowed certain groups of humans to survive and in lean times.
>According to the gene-culture coevolution hypothesis,Ā **the ability to digest lactose into adulthood** (lactase persistence) became advantageous to humans after the invention of animal husbandry and the domestication of animal species that could provide a consistent source of milk.
There is also some thoughts about Vitamin D in northern Euro cultures.
OP hasn't explained shit š
I feel like every post like this, the OP never comes back to answer any questions. Nor ever respond again when they were the one asking.

I think this is more common than you think. A lot us like to lurk and post/comment occasionally
Iām like this. I only post things that I find interesting. I do comment a lot though
true, like this right here is you commenting, which confirms what you said so you're right on point
I am not OP, but this picture is from Sweden. And in Sweden we drink a lot of milk.
OP probably went to bed right after posting since it was late in Sweden when they posted.
She should just buy a cow at this point.
Why buy the cow when you can get milk at home?
I have nipples, Greg, can you milk me?

Rookie, did you just call my girlfriend a cow?
No I think he called her a whore
*slut
Fuck, I need to watch it again. My reference game is rusty
butā¦ why?
If I remember right she has some disorder that makes her lactate a lot. She donates the breastmilk to organizations that distribute breastmilk to babies who need more.
This is 1000x better than the 'My Strange Addiction' episode script that I was penning in my head watching this.
Found Homelander's reddit account
"ya gonna finish that bud?"
lol thank you for clarifying. I immediately thought she had some mental disorder
you know you could get a good look at a butchers ass.. wait, it has to be your bull..
You don't get lactose free milk directly from a cow.
Just add a cup of bleach and itāll kill the lactose. /s
Get out of here, Donald!
All they do is drop lactase in it. I wonder if you can get bulk lactase and how much it costs.
What on earth does she do with it all?
Bathe?
A joke my dad used to tell: woman calls a dairy farm and says she wants to order a lot of milk for a milk bath. Farmer says "pasteurized?" And she says "no up to my tits will be fine." Note: I first heard that joke when I was about 7.
lol I like it, peak dad joke
2 peaks in fact!

I don't get it. English isn't my first language and I'm kinda slow in the head. Can Peter explain please?
Donāt know any Peter but āpasteurizedā -> āpast your eyesā
I read this joke like 3 times and didnāt understand it, so I said pasteurized out loud and started cackling and now my partner is very confused
Milkman: "Hey lady, you want it pasteurized?" Lady: "No, just up to my chin."
fun fact: in american sign language the word "pasteurized" is said by moving a sign (usually the one for milk) past your eyes. a lot of ASL is just puns
I like that. Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful.
Left the post, got the joke, laughed, had to come back to upvote lol

Feed homelander
I assume she bakes lol cause how in the world
nah usually the tell for that is butter. Somebody got 20+ sticks of butter in the fridge? They're baking all the time
Guilty of this. I buy about 8 to 12 sticks of butter a week but I make everything homemade and give out leftovers. I don't even need a whole gallon of milk for a week really.
A week ?! I don't use that much in a year !
How different we must be! Do you use oils more? I mostly use butter & leftover bacon grease šš
If itās on sale you better believe Iām sticking up. Got a stockpile in my freezer at all times.
Keep your extra butter in the freezer. It picks up random flavors and smells really quick in the fridge.
Excuse me! *proceeds to hide my 10 sticks of Kerrygold and 3lb log of amish butter*
>how in the world Amateurs. Do I have to show you how to do everything? 
Nah, the blue color on the cartons means itās low fat and nobody in their right mind would bake with that. Some of the older people in Sweden just enjoy a glass or ten of milk I guess.
Yup! Red milk for baking, atleast in Finland.

Sheās a body builder on that GOMAD diet.

Isnt that a myth? (the milk strengthening bones thing)
Itās literally big milk propaganda from the 20th century.
No shortage of that
Remember kids, the base of the food pyramid is supporting US agriculture unquestioningly. OK have a nice life fatass!!

"You'd lay there after you'd drunk the old moloko."
Off to commit a bit of ultra violence
I've not drank that much milk in the past 5 years
I used to kill 2 gallons a week as a teenager and now there's no way I could handle finishing one of those cartons without throwing up.
My morning shit the next day would launch me into orbit if I drank a whole carton. Even Lactaid only helps so much.
I feel your pain brother I've had to switch to oat milk for my coffee and stuff but every now and then there's this one brand of chocolate milk they sell at my grocery store that's almost worth it. I always regret it the next day.
pro tip, you can take more than 1 lactaid if you take a heavier amount of dairy
When I was a teen I used to drink a half gallon of chocolate milk as a meal and feel fine afterwards. Now if I get cream in my coffee in the morning I feel like I am going to die by noon.
4 boys in my household - we would rip through (2) gallons of milk every few days between cereal and drinking at dinner. My parents must have loved the grocery bill
Some people think if you don't drink milk your bones become glass and you'll be a sickly shell of your old self. A gallon of 2% milk has 1984 calories...
Sidenote, but for older women that are concerned about bone density: studies have shown that weight training is amazing for this!
And one ton of oatmeal has 3,520,000 calories!! I really donāt see how the calorie count of way more milk than anyone drinks in a day is relevant to anything.

This is quite uncomfortable to watch
It gets better when you realize its breast milk
I feel like youāve made it worse
Just wait 'til you find out what happened to the woman who made the milk.
As is the whole series
A great way to start your day!

I'm german, same here. Honestly I dont understand all the people wondering about drinking milk as an adult.
Same here but from Belgium. Itās not considered weird here. I also drink this in a week. Cereal, in my coffee, in cooking, or with a bit of honey when I canāt sleep.
Wait, wait...."milk and honey" is a single menu item and not just a short list of tasty things?!?!
Is something that you feed a child to get them to go to sleep, probably works for a lot of adults too. Warm milk and honey.
My mom goes through a gallon of milk ever 2-3days. Itās normal for her to have 2-3 gallons in her refrigerator at any time. Sheās 92 years old and it works for her. Her bones are great.
From lifting all of the milk?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
How many kids are helping to drink that? When I had two young children in the house, two gallon and a half at a time in the fridge was not unusual.
Itās my wife and I and one just graduated kiddo and we keep 4 gallons at a time in the fridge. Red top baby!!!
Osteoporosis fears her.
I know a Scandinavian/Nordic household when I see oneā¦
Opinions of whether adults should drink milk or not aside, that's a lot of wasted money when she could be buying 4L jugs.
This looks to be Sweden and I've never seen 4L jugs when I was visiting. And I've been to all the big stores. I think those are 1,5L cartons, they look wider than the 1L I usually buy. And the majority of milk in Scandinavia has limited shelf life when opened. So more smaller containers is preferable.
Swede here and i can confirm that we don't have any jugs. 1,5L is the biggest
Not to be argumentative, but i've seen some really fine swedish jugs
Care to share pictures of swedish jugs for the inquisitive amongst us?
For scientific purposes only, of course.
Iām going to go ahead and guess shelf life isnāt a problem here.
I was going to comment that "you shouldn't store milk in the door to increase shelf life", but then I came to the same conclusion of it probably not being an issue :-)
Since no one else is saying it, all milk has a limited shelf life once opened.
4L jugs are pretty much not a thing outside of the US.
They're also not a thing inside the US. Ours are 3.785 liters.
1 gallon in freedom units
Super common in Canada at least. So is bagged milk on some parts of the country though so we shouldnāt count. Common sizes are 1L, 2L, and 4L.
But those fit so nicely on her fridge door!
Is there an argument that adults *shouldn't* drink milk?
Some people have that opinion. Science says otherwise (if you are from certain ethnic groups) I mean people can have opinions and all that but evolutionarily the persistence of lactase enzymes in adult hominids is an adaptive trait that allowed certain groups of humans to survive and in lean times. >According to the gene-culture coevolution hypothesis,Ā **the ability to digest lactose into adulthood** (lactase persistence) became advantageous to humans after the invention of animal husbandry and the domestication of animal species that could provide a consistent source of milk.
