Milk- How close is yours from the cow?

Have you ever tasted non-homogenized milk before? We purchased some at the Norcross Farmer’s Market. We chose 2% being pretty sure that  whole milk would be too large a change in taste. The family seems ready to go back to their “normal” organic homogenized milk.  The neat thing is that we had a chance to try it! I’ve always wondered how milk that has not been over processed would taste. I think it’s great in baking and other dishes that call for milk. Why was I baking?

We had several guests over this past weekend to celebrate kidlet’s birthday.  It was neat to pass the jug of milk around for everyone to sniff and sip for themselves. While the timing worked out, it was not planned. It turned out to be a neat thing to do at a gathering.

Another point that this experiment has brought to the surface is how our perceptions of food (and soap for that matter) can be sensitive to change. It’s amazing how we get set in our routines and don’t even realize that we are resisting change.  When is the last time you tried something new in the kitchen or bath? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
