Comment on Never buying milk from Walmart again

  Ah i see. With full fat non homogenized milk you always have a big chunk of separated out pure fat/cream sitting on top, but i guess that not it in this case?

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen non-homogenized milk in a jug like that.

      Yeah me neither. I buy it in glass bottles, but considering the fact that canadians have milk bags i dont doubt that this exists too.

  That doesn’t look bad. That looks like it didn’t get homogenized. The “chunks” is just cream. Put the cap back on and shake it up.

    Virtually all supermarket milk in the US is homogenized, this is curdled due to spoilage.

      It doesn’t look curdled, though. The liquid doesn’t look yellowish and semi transparent enough.

      And it’s possible that this batch simply missed the step. I know people who threw out glass bottled milk because they were too yuppie to know any better. Glass bottled stuff is often not homogenized, so I know what it looks like. OP didn’t mention any smell, so I’m not convinced.

        I don’t want to get into the intricacies of milk processing for mass commercial scale, so I won’t explain the whole thing, but in short: no, it absolutely could not have missed that step.
