Freezing milk.
Reading another post about freezing milk I am now confused.as luck would have it I froze a half gallon on june 23. Today is june 24. The use by date is june 24, today. If I thaw it, is its new date tomorrow whenever that may be?
Never had milk sour on me but usage dropped due to a med issue. It might take several days to thaw it. |

Use by dates for milk are out of whack. I sniff it to see if it smells fine, only once did I pour it away and that was full cream about two months past its date! |

Milk will last many days past its' 'use by date' especially if it's kept at the back of the refrigerator. |

I go by the use-by date stamped on the jug . Most of the time we drink it in 2 to 2 1/2 weeks from the date we open it , and I can tell when it's on the verge of spoiling by the way it mixes into our coffee . It takes that long to use a gallon since we use most of it in our coffee . -- Snag Yes , I'm old and crochety - and armed . Get outta my woods ! |

Usually week to 10 days without any change. I thaw the jugs in the kitchen sink by putting jug in slightly warm water for a few hours. Half gallons about two hours. thaw is much faster this way. -- Mr.E |

One would only do that once, then learn better. That's a poor way to thaw any perishable unless the intent is to use it all that day, greatly reduces its shelf life... best thawed in the fridge.... don't really need to fully thaw milk. Thaw about half way, shake and pour how much you want and place back in the fridge. |

It takes that >long to use a gallon since we use most of it in our coffee . Fresh milk here doesn't have a "use by" date, it has a *sell by* date. And then much depends on how the store stores milk... there are many stores that leave dairy and other perishables in the aisle for prolonged periods. Lots of stores have poor refrigeration, they don't even have doors on their coolers. I've actually checked suspected store's refrigeration with a thermometer. when their milk spoils relatively rapidly I found their temps to be over 40ºF, I'll no longer shop there. |

Why not just take the milk out of the freezer a few days before you anticipate you will need it and let it thaw naturally in the refrigerator? |

Forget about any dates that might be on the package. Rely on your sense of smell to tell you when your milk has expired. OTOH, sour milk would probably work swell when making biscuits or cornbread. Near as I can tell, milk must be full of microorganisms when you get it from the store. That's why it doesn't last very long. OTOH, ultra-pasteurized milk must be pretty clean because that stuff will last forever. People say that they don't like the taste of UP milk but I can't tell the difference. OTOH, I'm not a real milk connoisseur like some of the people here. |
