Blue Top? Green Top? Red Top?

Milk .....that is!
I have full fat blue top as l don't like skimmed or semi skimmed milk but l drink it in moderation. The other milks are too watery for me.
I also think there is a difference in the milk from different supermarkets. I purchased some blue top milk from the Co Op the other day and it seemed nicer than the other supermarket's milk. The milk from the milkman was always the nicest!

Which milk do you have? Or do you have a different type/substitute milk?

Ruthio, I bet it is! The only trouble is, it's still homogenised! I did prefer milk when it had the cream on the top!

I thought this thread was about T shirts. I have my blue one on this morning. It has Jack Jones in huge print across the front. My Grandkids call it Grandads Billy No Mates tee shirt.

Re: Blue Top? Green Top? Red Top?

In my area green top is semi skimmed, and as I don't really like milk, that is what I use for sauces or in my cuppa tea.
On the odd occasions that the cats get a milk treat, they insist on blue top.

Blue Top? Green Top? Red Top?
None of the above Art

The top is silver and the milk has a good layer of cream on the top which I have on my porridge .

It is delivered by a milkman in glass bottles, comes from cows on local farms and tastes rich and creamy ....yum

Hi

If we want the real thing we have this just down the road.

Unpasteurised, unhomogenised, just out of the cow and chilled.

Is that similar to the orange top which they do at Sainsbury's? I think that's 1% too and rather nice.
