I talked to a Mennonite today that's said their dairies are dumping milk because they can't sell it supposedly the people that they sell to , the bottlers can't get the plastic pellets to make the bottles because they come from China .

No school, no milk for lunch.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Yes, we need to start making more here, like it used to be.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Nittany, Schools are still distributing milk and meals to kids. Parents or other caretakers pick those meals up outside the school

Wonder if dairies could do that? Bring your containers and take some milk home.

We used to get milk in waxed paper cartons. This country has the ability to produce A LOT of paper.

Many moons ago used to ride along with milkman on his route delivering reusable glass bottles. Got an education fast on those rides. First time I learned the term" built like a brick s---house"

Do most dairies that aren't large ag farms have pasteurization equipment, if not nope. You'd get hanged in many states selling raw milk.

Just to clarify, it's not the farmers that are dumping the milk, it's the milk company dumping it.

Certain states allow cow shares. People buy a part of a dairy cow and then pickup milk whenever they want. I believe California and Pennsylvania allow dairy farms to sell raw milk but they have to have really good quality milk. If someone wants to argue I don't care, I am just stating my understanding of how I think it works. I have bought raw milk in Pennsylvania. You Pennsylvania people are lucky.

Overproduction means dumping(not dumping into the market which drives the prices down).It is a way to keep prices stable.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Growing up, we'd go to a place called the Dairy Barn. It was a large dairy farmer who had a pasteurizer and bottles.

We'd get 4 gallon at a time, hand back old bottles and get filled ones. Doubt that'd be legal in today's world.
