When you're at Kroger's buying milk!!!
They just started selling milk in 3/4 of a gallon!!
Like that makes any sense for the consumer!!

What does a 3/4 gallon cost?

I'll have to check tha out at our Kroger's
I don't drink Milk - never have - few drops in my morning coffee.
I got a kick out of the EGG Carton - it stated " Eggs in a protected shell"
Maybe they're cheaper without the shell ?

Yeah, I saw that on the news last night. I think it just helps the milk company buy less plastic for their bottles. No big deal for us as consumers.

We should go to the metric system. Things are alot cheaper by the litre. *picks nose. Looks. flicks*

They've been selling milk in the UK in 3/4 gallon containers (6 pints) for ages now, but I haven't noticed a 1 gallon container here (8 pints). I try to buy organic milk when I can, and also organic of anything else I can, as I believe all those chemicals do humans no good at all. Also avoid monosodium glutamate (it's only a flavour enhancer after all, so the chinese love it in their bland food) as this cannot be got rid of from the human body, so just builds up and builds up - whatever would be the result of this after many years ???? Oops, back to the milk

Now there's an idea!!
I'm not going to stop drinking my gallon a week in any case.
Milk is GOOD for you.
I drink non-fat.
