Wish we could have something similar in my country - and at best fresh milk from the farm yard, because it has dozens more Nutrients than the industrial processed milk and tastes way better than it. The joke is: It doesn´t cost even more than milk from the supermarket and the struggling farmer makes way more profit. Same goes to Potatoes. 100 Kilograms are sold for 10 Euro or even lesser from the farmer to the wholesaler (sometimes the farmer has to give them away for free) , while the wholesaler wants at least 2,50 Euro for 2.5 Kilograms. He quadruples the price for virtually no benefit for the customer.

@@EgoShredder Indeed, and thats something i ask myself every time when i watch Videos about Thieves stealing packets from the doorstep, mostly from houseowners with big yards in front of them. Where is the problem to install a box (or maybe even two) with a good foundation or has weight in it to make it immovable by hand - and is kept open as long someone puts a packet or something else in; then it locks itself up when closed, like a car door - and only the owner can reopen it by a key. I mean, that Thieve problem isn´t new. In addition: Yes, it would be a great thing if supermarkets would only sell at least non perishable goods and everything else is sold directly by the farmers. Even if it would mean to pick up the Goods by someone else who immediately sells it in a Tour, it would be still cheaper for the customer and more sustainable for the farmer. Instead, farmers often must be subsidized, so that they don't collapse - only because someone is between who wants to make maximum profit from simple food in any variation. Even potatosticks are naturally nothing more than sliced potatos, maybe with some additional ingredients to spice it up, but does that justify costs for transportation, processing, cooling unless they´re eaten, which results in a high customers price (in comparison to the farmers price)? And: I think most of the energy problems arise from unneccesary things like these. Imagine a wholesaler sends the goods from your local farmer through half of the state (or even more) and you get it back four Weeks later in a processed and ready to use form, while you could pick it up locally in a absolutely fresh form. Its crazy, if you think at least twice about it.

My dad used to work for Unigate as their motor mechanic at one of the deliver centres and they have a skip out the back that they would throw out yoghurts, drinks, baby food etc that was close to the use by date as they could not deliver it to shops and supermarkets. We used to go around as kids and help ourselves to what ever was thrown out as it was perfectly edible just close or on the use by date.

That stuff is generally fine so long as it's been kept properly refrigerated and doesn't smell really terrible. I've cooked with lumpy milk before and all it did was change the texture a bit - there were no ill effects and it tasted mostly fine. In my experience a sealed yogurt is still perfectly edible a week after it's meant to expire. Might have separated slightly, but still perfectly safe to eat.

The greatest thing about the Unigate milk deliveries were the bottles that had advertising on them. I have a large collection of these in my kitchen. Theyre a wonderful snippet of our history.

I don't ever recall anyone I knew getting milk delivered. We all just got it at the grocery store. I guess the UK had it a lot longer.

My grandmother said the farm and dairy saved them during the depression.

I haven't seen a milkman or a pint of milk outside a doorstep in almost 30 years. But as a kid in the suburbs of a small northern town we used to have the milk delivered this way. We dropped the service due to increasing price and then occasionally the milk got nicked. I suppose with the advent of internet home food/grocery deliveries the time of the milkman is well and truly over. Or is there someone out there in some small town or village that still has this rare service ? When I lived in central London, this was unheard of.

You clearly aren't from Europe. Laminated cartons are actually the best. First, laminated cartons are recyclable, don't know why you think they aren't. The more important factor is that they're far better sealing. This lets them do "aseptic" (sterile) packaging, when combined with UHT processing eliminates refrigeration, which consumes a huge amount of energy in transport and the market. Not only that, UHT milk keeps for half a year, which eliminates food waste. Moral of the story: don't look at the package, look at the lifecycle.

There are NUMEROUS articles on the fact that these cannot be recycled or recycled easily and that the few plants that can handle such packaging are very few and far between, meaning these products have to be taken to a local centre, separated, and then sent on halfway across the country/world to centres that can handle them. As opposed to plastic bottles which can be recycled completely in every other town without needing to go through advanced screening and material -separating procedures. And we're not talking about long-life milk - ordinary milk to be used within a few days also comes in those cartons and some markets have switched their own brands entirely to those in a greenwashing campaign (ie Morrisons). And sorry but who the hell wants to buy milk and keep it for six months? Cows make it every day so there's simply no need for long-life non-refridgerator milk.
