     @WilhelmIII @Billy_Hughes @mitchconner Milk is not shelf stable. Ultra pasteurized is, but that's pretty explicitly labeled.

     Our milk is always in the refrigerated section. Not refrigerating eggs and milk is nonsense

     Most milk in the US in now shelf-stable and doesn't need to be refrigerated.

     It's still kept in coolers in the store to make you think they haven't added a shit ton of chemicals to it, but they have.

     @WilhelmIII @Billy_Hughes @mitchconner I've had two incidents of milk gallons getting left in a car. Trust me, it's not "shelf stable". That turns into a stink bomb.

     @WilhelmIII @Billy_Hughes @mitchconner The FDA says 4 hours out of refrigerator for a gallon of milk, still sealed. You can realistically get double that if you're using it right away. As soon as the temp goes up, bacteria start to multiply like crazy. I am a raw milk enjoyer, especially goat milk, but let's not kid ourselves.

     Yeah, you can't leave it in the car. Like you can't leave a Hershey bar in the car.

     @WilhelmIII @Billy_Hughes @mitchconner Neat. Still not the average milk you buy though. I have had some shelf stable milk before and it tasted weird. Possibly because it wasn't cold.

     Most commercial dairy bottlers are consolidating their production lines to reduce costs and making everything ultra-pasteurized.

     The tell is that shelf-stable milk gets a bit yellow, so they add titanium dioxide to it to make it White.

     Read your label.

     Ultra-pasteurization changes the nutritional quality of the milk (and the taste, as you noted) but during the process the milk becomes "sticky" so it's "rinsed" with a chemical called D90 which is a aliphatic mineral spirit solvent.
