Using Powder milk,,,

Subject: Using Powder milk,,, Fri 15 Feb 2008, 7:21 am

I read on a site where a lady said she would buy a gallon of milk and when it was 1/2 the way gone she would add powder milk and fill it up,,like it was a fresh gallon of milk.She said her kids never knew any difference.My husband is such a milk drinker that we should own a cow!

I cant remember using powder milk,,seems like I did at one time,,anyone else drink it or use it and it taste the same as milk?I like milk also ,,when we buy it I buy 1%.

I thought this was such a frugal idea to stretch my pennies.

I do this also. The kids did complain at first but got used to it. If you do this just make sure the milk is very cold.
