Why does milk in America taste so horrible? Is it cut with reconstituted milk powder or something?

>> No.10286197

Because most large dairy companies in the US use a higher temperature for pasteurization requiring them to hold it at said temp for a shorter amount of time. This allows then to pasturize more milk faster. Unfortunately it also severely impacts taste.

we have sane, common sense regulations on milk sold to the public.

They are for americunts considering what the farms are allowed to pump into their cows. Drinking pasteurized milk from a radioactive Americunt cow would probably give you super AIDS.

There's multiple grades of milk in the states. Everything from undrinkable to amazing is sold .

Milk in many parts of the US is completely turned to skim, then the excess milkfats are added back later to whatever percent they need (1%, 2%, whole). More efficient I guess, but could affect taste

You need to get it from the smaller brands, also there's different milk grading.

They do that everywhere in western countries atleast i think for the cheaper milk.

>>10286183
it depends on where you get your milk. If you are buying shitty milk from huge dairies, then you are getting ultra-pasteurized, homogenized milk. If you shop around and spend more money you can find non homogenized, low temp pasteurized (if not raw- depending on the state) that is better tasting. **hurrdurr raw milk is badddd** (it's not, stfu)

Yeah, those regulations that allow milk to kept unrefrigerated for up to four months as it’s shipped to Hawaii, where soon arrival it’s repasteurized and sold as fresh milk (for about $18.00 a gallon).

Two possibilities immediately spring to mind: You're used to UHT and America doesn't do UHT, or, the other way, you're NOT used to UHT and Americans do UHT.

That's not two possibilities. It's two variations of a single possibility.
