Since I did the dishes, my sisters would pay me to dump their milk down the drain. I made a lot of money.
My parents drank regular milk, which we all thought highly unfair.
I remember the stuff all too well, which is why I stayed very clear from it all these years, but then I somehow ran across something on the internet where someone was talking about how much powdered milk has changed (for the better, much better) over the years. They process it much different now than they did back then and I promise no clumps of any sort.
I had already started drinking skim milk after the acid reflux thing because the whole milk is too heavy and the skim milk in the carton was ok after I got use to it, but after I read about the powdered milk of today, I decided to try it and to my surprise, I like it much better than the other skim milk in the carton.
I find it thicker than the skim in the carton and I was pleasantly amazed.
I dare ya to try it, just for the hell of it ;-) Just get the smallest package you can find and if you don't like it, pour it in a bath for some super soft skin :-D
