SKL Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I remember that we had powdered milk in the pantry. It was kept for emergencies. I don't remember us ever using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaKinVA Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I remember that we had powdered milk in the pantry. It was kept for emergencies. I don't remember us ever using it. We had yellow plastic containers with snap on, blue lids. We'd open the milk packet, put it in, add water, put on the lid and shake. It has a light hint of pale blue in the light. I use powdered milk in some baking, but my kids have never had to drink it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoutingmom Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Fat people are sometimes ashamed to be seen in public and quite justifiably feel that they are more at risk of being attacked and less able to run away from potential assailants so they are less likely to walk long distances so they get fatter so they become more ashamed and fearful so they get fatter....My dh hasn't gone to church for years because of his weight.

Scarlett Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I have a question about powdered milk. Is there any nutrition to it? We did get commodities some while I was a kid.....for some reason it seems like my grandmother got them but we didn't....anyway I never liked the cheese and still can't stomach American cheese although, I do love Rotel dip. so hmmm...who knows. As far as I can remember we never drank powdered milk. I would rather have just water. But I can see if it has some nutrition that people would give it to their kids.

HomeAgain Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Powdered milk has the same nutrition as fat-free milk. It's just a different form. We use it here for baking, and occasionally when I was a new mom I'd mix up a cup's worth to mix into the gallon jug and help stretch it further.

Murphy101 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) I have a question about powdered milk. Is there any nutrition to it?

As far as I can remember we never drank powdered milk. I would rather have just water. But I can see if it has some nutrition that people would give it to their kids. Nutrient wise it's supposed to be okay. It's used in a form to make baby formula too. I would buy it when we were in bad off times to either cook with or mix with regular milk to stretch it. I'm with you, it's wasn't palletable to drink in its own. Even ice cold, I always felt it wasted like dirty water. But I almost never buy milk to drink anyways. I've only offered my babies and kids tap water bc I wanted grocery money to go for meals. A few years ago I started buying milk and cold cereal bc it just wasn't worth it to me to make a hot breakfast every morning. We really felt we'd moved up the economic ladder to buy milk and cereal for 4-5 days a week. Lol Edited April 3, 2016 by Murphy101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
