Oh yes! That’s when we drank powdered milk which barely tastes like milk but I still keep it on hand.
How about dipping the cream off the top of every gallon for a week and making ice cream with it? You know, when the cream rises to the top. LOL! Lots of people don’t realize where that saying came from.

I worked at a producer of dry milk. I maintained the machines which rewet the powder, add emulsifiers and vitamins, hot-bed dry it into those little granules, and package it. I still have hundreds of pounds of dry milk, and the only way I could drink it is in a disaster emergency. It’s awful. I always found it odd that they dehydrate the milk powder base in California, then ship that by rail and truck all the way to Wisconsin, just to rewet it and dry it back down all over again?

There are probably a lot of people who don't realize where milk comes from. "From the store?" "From Obama?"
