When I left the US about 20 years ago, you could get 1% milk in the stores. Normally we drank 2%, except my dad liked this 3.8% milk that my mother said would kill him sooner or later. He said it tasted better. What I’m saying, skim milk was the normal thing for us.
In Austria, it’s hard to find a cow that produces anything under 2%. I mean, low-fat here is 2%. And it’s gone through some process that makes it curdle faster, so if you’re shopping for the weekend, you have to buy normal milk as that stays good longer. And normal milk here has up to 4.5% fat, at least I’ve seen milk with that much; it was actually advertised as a positive selling point, being a richer product.
The fat thing hasn’t come to Austria yet. Mmm, 4.5%.
These comments are demanding and difficult. please reinstall Quicktopic.
You know, I noticed that myself. The higher the fat content, the longer the shelf life. You can find half-and-half in the breakroom refrigerator that is good for days way past when you think it would be, but you’d better use up the 1% PDQ or you find yourself pouring it down the drain. we need a dairy expert to advise on this subject. what about that bovine woman?
Yeah, I noticed that too. Why does it need my email and name… Name, OK, but email too? have your PerlGuru work on that. It really annoys me. :-)
it’s a simple matter of unchecking a box on the configuration. MT has a setting to DEMAND you identify yourself, to prevent those anonymous jerk commenters… but on reflection that’s not too effective, anonymous commenters can leave a spoof email, so …
miguel, it’s in the blog configuration, or let me know & i’ll fix you up, ok?
oh yeah — miguel has his own corner of the message board too, so if these comments continue to annoy, there is/will be that.
I will be linking to the message board as soon as I figure out all this stuff. kd, feel free to dive into the blog configuration and make it say “oink” if you have the time.
Okay, think I fixed it.
next project: make these comments remember stuff like they’re supposed to. might have to revert to the old GM script, ’cause i don’t know how different this one is or how it’s supposed to work.
we’ll get this place shipshape in no time.
