Fresh milk as long as it's very cold. I don't like the taste of powdered milk at all. However, when my kids were little and money was tight, I would mix up some powdered milk and add that to regular milk just to stretch things out a bit.

I like fresh milk because it is more natural in terms of taste and state. I am a milk lover and nothing comes close to the natural fresh milk.
Good day!

Usually I buy the fresh low-fat milk in the supermarket, I find it more convenient and cheaper than powdered milk though powdered milk has a longer storage life.

I prefer no milk! I have never liked milk. I don't like the smell or the taste so I don't drink it unless I put it in coffee which is not often. I prefer to eat my cereal dry if I have cereal at all, which is not that often. I eat other things with calcium so I am not worried about that.

I do usually keep a small box of the powdered milk on hand, but only for emergencies (like when we get snowed in or something.) I don't care for the taste of the powdered at all, and I would much prefer to drink fresh, or none at all if there isn't fresh. When I do use the powdered, it's only in cooking where I can't taste it.

Hi Niah...I absolutely prefer fresh milk. When we were kids growing up, my mom bought only powdered milk and I hated it! I swore when I was old enough to move out , I would never use it again...Well guess what...I did...but I mixed it with fresh milk so it wasnt so expensive. Also having 4 kids, it was cheaper. But I didnt mind mixing in chocolate so the kids would drink it, where my mom only allowed one glass of chocolate milk a day.
Now there is just hubby and I home so we drink fresh milk again...The powder stuff does save a lot of money and if its really cold, its not too bad. Add in chocolate powder, and its a lot better!

I like to keep powdered and canned milk around for when we run out of the fresh milk or when I am in the middle of a recipe and there isn't enough to go around. Of late, I found that our food co-op now is carrying nonhomogenized milk in glass bottles. This is the way it used to come when I was a child in the 1950's. I am so excited because I do not like drinking milk that has the fat forced into it. Just my rant for the day.

Hi friend,
From my younger age onwards i started to drink powdered milk only.It tastes good than that of fresh milk.Even though powdered milk stays for long but it is not good for health for long run.It gives some health problems.Because of that i stopped drinking powdered milk,instead i am drinking fresh milk which i bought it every day basically to keep my health stronger and healthier.
Have a nice day

Fresh milk as it tastes much better and it tastes fresh aswell.
I dont drink powdered milk as I never had and don't want to try it.
By hearing it makes it already very disgusting.
Powdered milk in cereal must taste so wrong.
