Well, I like the taste of milk but not to drink by itself.
I also don't like it with savory foods and especially anything
that is sour, like salad dressing. Makes me want to gag.
(There was an incident many years ago in home ec class where
we prepared a simple meal that included a salad. We all also
had to drink a glass of milk with our meal. I refused to drink
mine because of the salad. The teacher insisted I drink it or
I would be sent to the principal's office. I told her I would
throw up if I drank it after eating the salad. She insisted,
so I said okay. I drank it and immediately barfed all over the
place. I wonder if she ever did that again.)
Any way I enjoy an ice cold glass of whole milk (that other stuff
is just nasty tasting dirty water afaiac) with something sweet
like a big slice of chocolate cake or with pancakes, etc., with
maple syrup.
I also love buttermilk but only with savory food, not sweet.
(Just the opposite). So I will drink a glass of ice cold
buttermilk with bacon and eggs and that sort of stuff.
Notice both times I said ice cold. Once milk gets warm I
not longer can stand to drink it.
Also, I usually only drink it with breakfast type meals.
I prefer other things with my lunch and dinner.
Kate, who just told you more than you ever wanted to know
about her milk preferences. ;-)
