I have a devil of a time with milk in Mexico.

Lots of folks don't understand how quickly milk sours, and the locals
are not careful about refrigerating milk while it's being shipped,
etc.

Consequently, you might get a carton with an expiration date in two
weeks, but it starts to go sour in a couple of days.

I should not drink whole milk - too much fat. I'm supposed to drink
skim, but I drink 2%, which seems to be okay.

I like the taste, and I love a cold glass of milk with chocolate. It's
almost a daily ritual.

I buy the "fresh" 2% milk - even though it may go sour pretty quickly,
but I also keep on hand the unrefrigerated cartons of milk......

Nutri Leche 1 litre - less than a dollar. The carton I'm looking at
has an expiration date of 2 September, 2009. They can be stored
without refrigeration.

Pretty close to fresh milk - there is a slight difference.
