Does anyone know where I can get non-homogenised milk - I live in Sheffield. ..

 

I never expected the eggs to taste so good, but they reminded me of eggs from childhood, and I would like to find that lovely creamy milk we use to have delivered... to give to my little ones..

 

Thanks

I hate to say this, but Tesco sells non-homogenised milk.

[peckham]

TESCOS!!!!!!!!!

 

I hate to say it, but I often shop there and Ive never seen it... never even thought to look

 

Dooh!!!

 

Thanks for your quick reply - I'll have a look tomorrow

Bear in mind I know virtually nothing about milk but I'm sure someone on another forum said that organic milk was non-thingermejigged....

[Mel (& Paul)]

"Rachel's" organic milk is not homogenised - we get ours from Waitrose. I think Tescos and Sainsburys stock it too (although if I do ever venture into T and S they have the labels, but there is never any stock

Rachels is lovely and creamy - even the semi skimmed

[Lesley]

Co Op sell organic milk and also our local Farm Shop sells local milk which is not homogenised.

[Cate in NZ]

My milkman delivers me Rachels Organic milk........ he's slightly more expensive per pint than any of the supermarkets but he turns up day in day out, always has a smile and a wave, and because I use him and shop locally wherever possible I don't end up going to the dreaded supermarkets too often at all.

So, I'd suggest....... ask your milkman

Rachel's organic is the best, and so's their rice pudding! When I was preggers I had a craving for creamy gold top milk and got that from the supermarket (shhhhh!) couldn't drink it now - way too fatty for my taste.

[Mel (& Paul)]

And the advantage of Rachels is that if you put the bar code into her website the company sends a cow to Africa for ever so many bar codes

[Guest]

But it all has the same bar code, so if you have more than one e-mail address, you can register quite a few times for even more votes..... or e-mail your friends with the bar code and ask them to do it.

[The Dogmother]

Well spotted grd! Are you a fan of the rice puddings too?

[Mel (& Paul)]

I didnt spot that - and I was able to put two lots in.

hang on

need to go to the fridge

[Mel (& Paul)]

mmm...... lovely bit of chocolate cake.

 

Now, where was I?

 

Oh yeah *slaps forehead* I was going to the fridge for the milk bar codes.

 

Hang on a sec

[Mel (& Paul)]

yum yum,

 

those cooked sausages would have only gone to waste.

 

Now, where was I?

 

 

milk - THAT's why I was going to the fridge

 

 

back in a tick

[Mel (& Paul)]

aha!!

 

Now I have two different bar codes - I guess one for the full fat and one for the semi skimmed. Will have to get friends and neighbours involved.

 

Slurp

Worth going to the fridge for a nice g&t

[Guest]

That was quite funny Mel - for you.

[Mel (& Paul)]

That was really funny Mel -

 

 

Why thank you kindly

[The Dogmother]

You cad Graham, I thought that was hilarious!

 

Mel, you're wasted in insurance, get that girl on the stage!

[chocchick]

 

What is non-homogenised milk?

 

Dawn, do you go to Tescos on Infirmary Road?

[The Dogmother]

If I remember right Choccy, homogenised is when the milk is all mixed together so that the creamy part doesn't seperate out. I may weel be wrong, though

[Mel (& Paul)]

Nope you are right (about the homog. milk and me being on the stage...........)

[chocchick]

Why's that good (the milk)?

[Mel (& Paul)]

Its just nice if you like that "top of the milk" creaminess you used to get when the milk was delivered in bottles

oh, hang on, you're terribly young arent you

you probably dont know that milk used to be delivered to your doorstep

[Louise]

Yeah and squabbling with my brother over who got the first bit out of the bottle on your cereal

 

Then being miffed when mother shook the bottle to mix it so neither of us got it

[Mrs Frugal]

You had that too, Louise! Not fair, was it!
