Milk taste change quickly?

I read from someone that goat's milk has an enzyme in it that begins to break down the milk within 48 hours, and that is what causes the "off" taste. I can't remember who supplied the information.

Yes finally someone hit on the right answere!Good job H S H
I honestly have to laugh at the claims I see on all of H.T. After three days the cream will start to separate and then the goat taste will begin to show to those with working taste buds!
Even nearly freezing temps won't keep nature from doing it's thing.

I'm wondering why you would be drinking 3 day old milk when you get fresh milk every day. Drink the fresh stuff and then use the rest for whatever else you use it for.

We also sell (I mean give..) some of it away and always sell (I mean give) the jars that are freshest to the buyers. Sometimes I end up drinking milk that's a few days old as a result.

Funny, I have not had sotre bought cow's milk since we starting milking this goat (about 5 weeks?) and had some yesterday. Yuck - it tastes like chemicals! And this was milk that my wife paid extra for because it said "organic" on the plastic jug. Amazing what real food does to you.

We have been thinking about getting a cow but now I'm not sure I can even transition back to fresh cow's milk. We'll see.

One of my boys is absolutely grossed out by the thought of drinking our own goat's milk. While I am not in the custom of making exceptions for our kids with respect to food, he is a very rapidly growing teenager and needs to drink his milk so we get one gallon of store bought milk for him. I wonder if he'll notice if I start mixing it..... hmmm...

One of our boys wouldn't touch the goat milk. Then we went camping. While we were away, we bought a quart of cow's milk, because we'd run out of goat milk. We had some cow's milk left when we returned. Our boy asked my DH to get him a glass of milk. Obligingly, my DH brought two glasses. He said one was goat milk, but he couldn't remember which one. And we were now out of cow's milk. Well, the boy at first touched neither. Then he sniffed them both. Then he tasted one. Then he tasted the other, made an terrible face, proclaimed that the milk tasted just awful, and happily drank up the rest of the glass of goat milk. We told him what happened, and he's been an avid goat milk drinker ever since.

Well Laura, I hope that's what happens with my son.

We always call his milk "pus milk" because of the stories of major dairies having a certain amount of pus in their milk from mastitis being spread by the milk machines etc.

He calls it "sanitized" milk so sometimes we ask him if he wants a glass of sanitized pus.

My wife is weird about ducks eggs. She doesn't think they taste bad but they're such messy creatures that she thinks their eggs must be gross and she won't eat them.
