Straus milk is not cheap at ~$9 per gallon, but we don’t consume a lot and the quality is simply amazing. Still haven’t figured out what it is, but regular cheap US milk makes me incredibly sick to the point that my DR diagnosed me with lactose intolerance, except I noticed when traveling to continental EU, I never got sick even when accidentally eating something with dairy. Turns out I can have milk and milk-based product just fine, but something about the regular US milk was like poison to me. Tried the A2 bandwagon - didn’t work. I can’t now recall how I stumbled on Straus product, but it was life changing and I really hope they continue to survive!
- snikeris 6y agoI'm also willing to pay more for milk I perceive as better. That seems to be the way forward...distinguish your milk as something better than what's usually found at the supermarket. The farm near me places emphasis on their breed of cows.
