Poll: Do you drink milk?

I have something really weird to tell you.....I drink milk. When I order it in coffee shops, people think I’m nuts and never know what to charge me. But milk is so delicious. Do you drink glasses of milk, dear readers? I'm so curious!
P.S. This cocktail looks delicious.

  2. Nope. I never liked it, not even as a child. Cheese, though. That's an entirely different story.

  5. that's all i would drink when i was a kid - milk, milk, milk...it's good for your bones! And then my mom said milk's for cows, you're drinking hormones, so no more milk for me. Now when I try it, it's just not the same; my love of milk is nevermore, nevermore...

  6. I LOVE milk. And yes, whenever I order it at restaurants everyone I'm with is always like what are you, 6 years old? Have you heard about the Ronnybrook Milk Bar in Chelsea Market? I keep meaning to check it out.

  7. I drink milk so much. My boyfriend will order chocolate milk at places. Between the two of us, we buy a gallon of milk every couple of days.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I do drink milk--usually with richer meals. I grew up in the Midwest and my family had milk for dinner often--none of us are lactose intolerant. But I can't think of a time when I ordered it when I was eating out. I guess I subconsciously repressed the urge to drink it when out with others.

  9. My Mom is a big milk drinker - she drinks like half a gallon a day! I enjoy milk here and there...and for a sweet, tipsy drink I like amaretto liqueur with milk. Sounds weird, but so GOOD!

    ReplyDelete
  10. I only drink milk with dessert. but of course I do sometimes buy the little horizon chocolate milks for a pick me up. I always feel 5 again, when I do this, maybe that it why I do it?
    But I have a friend that drinks a glass of milk with every meal.... and I grew up drinking milk with dinner.
    Hey milk...it does a body good.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Nope!
    I drank lots as a kid (Mom gave us no choice either lol), I guess I overdosed or something!

    Now it's in cereal (which is very rare), or with a chocolate cookie (which is also very rare), or never.

    I do eat lotssss of cheese tho! lol :) LOVE it!

    I wonder if I'll ever overdose on cheese... haha!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I grew up with skim milk, so I always thought I hated it. Then I tasted 1% - and now I love milk! I'll pour a glass and then put it in the freezer for about ten minutes - yum!

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm swedish - we all drink milk! My father is the biggest milkdrinker i know.

    ReplyDelete
  14. it has to be skim and cold as can be, but yes i do. i once had a dream where in the wall next to my bed i had a milk dispenser that dispensed the coldest milk ever.

    ReplyDelete
  15. this is fabulous!! woo hoo. so happy to have fellow milk drinkers:) putting it in the freezer for ten minutes is an awesome idea.

    ps. idaida, awesome that swedes love milk!
    pps. paige, that is hilarious.

    ReplyDelete
  16. i usually drink it with dinner every night.

    my mom absolutely LOVES milk, so i was raised that way. we tease her about her beverage of choice and needless to say, have loaded her down with GOT MILK? paraphernalia!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I was vegan somewhere between 4-5 years and now that I'm back on dairy, I still don't drink milk. I don't put it in coffee, cereal, tea, nor do I drink it straight. I just totally got used to soy milk and am fine with still using it.

    When I worked with my boyfriend before we started dating he'd always go into the office kitchen and drink a big glass of milk. I thought it was the cutest thing ever, so you get cute points too.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I used to drink milk when I was a little girl. a lot of milk. my Dad and I would secretly sneak swigs from the gallon, I know, gross.

    now, I don't drink milk. personal choice when I became a vegetarian. I drink rice milk . but that doesn't mean I won't order an occasional latte or eat piles and piles of cheese, as long as it's organic. :)

    ReplyDelete
  19. I was allergic to cow's milk when I was a kid and so I drank goat's milk instead. Don't know if that's why I don't like milk as an adult, but I will gag if I have to drink a glass of milk. My husband on the other hand loves milk and can't eat oreos without it. weird!

    ReplyDelete
  20. I never drink milk, I hate that. But it's maybe a question of culture : in France, we don't drink milk as you do in the US. Do you know that it takes 2 weeks to digest it?

    ReplyDelete
  21. I don't so much, but my boyfriend drinks milk all the time. With everything. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. I find it odd... but that's because I don't drink it often.

    ReplyDelete
  22. all the time, mostly with desserts. I love love love Strawberry Quick in my milk. Yum!

  24. Well I really love cake and nothing goes better with cake than milk, or maybe that cocktail you just posted cause alcohol makes everything more fun....

  25. mmmm Rice Milk with Hershey's Syrup.

  26. jillian1:50 PM

    mmmm, MILK!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Never. Maybe with a peanut butter sandwich.

    ReplyDelete
  28. oh, i LOVE milk. i was just drinking a cold glass last night (with an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie!) and considering how unusual it is to really enjoy milk past the age of 10. but i sure do! cheers!

    ReplyDelete
  29. LowerEatSide2:22 PM

    only with brownies and chocolate chip cookies. i think milk is great (at times) but i can never finish an entire carton before it goes bad and i hate wasting. it's one of those grocery items that i can't justify when i'm living single.

    ReplyDelete
  30. oh no! I don't know why I just read all those comments about drinking big glasses of milk; I feel a little queasy now. I have a real aversion to it. Only soya or rice milk for me, even in tea. I think it's because I didn't like it much as a child so my granny would try to jazz up a glass of milk by adding Ribena to make a "milkshake". It turns lilac, then, IT CURDLES. Come to think of it I don't like lilac much either...

    ReplyDelete
  31. i drink milk with all my meals! although not at restaurants, usually! :) it's most important to drink milk with your pizza. and of course, your baked goods. but that's a no brainer!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Almost every night with dinner. mmmm....I love milk. Never broke a bone either and I give the credit more to my milk-drinking habits than to gracefulness cause I'm always beating myself up.

    ReplyDelete
  33. We are a family of milk drinkers! And I love chocolate milk for breakfast!

    ReplyDelete
  34. yes, yes, yes, yes.

    just milk. milk and chocolat. milk shakes. coffee and milk (everyday).

    ReplyDelete
  35. there's nothing like a cold glass of milk. i used to drink at least 1 glass a day (my mom would be proud) until i switched over to soy milk. nothing compares to the real thing.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Try asking for milk with ice!
    I love milk...both chocolate & white, but I will only drink white milk if it has ice in it.
    Everyone who knows this about me thinks I'm crazy...but I think it's amazing!
    The milk stays so much colder for longer & when you've finished off the milk, the ice is coated with milky frost. Delicious!

    ReplyDelete
  37. i grew up in the Philippines and my mom had us drink milk (hot milk actually) before bedtime everyday. So yeah, i drink milk too. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  38. Yes...I actually drink milk everyday. Not "soy milk" either. Good old fashione milk (non-fat).

    ReplyDelete
  39. Yes! I love milk! I order at restaurants even and people think I am either childish, or weird. I say what's so wrong with milk, it is so delicious and nutritious!

    ReplyDelete
  40. never! my mom tells me that even as a baby i refused to drink milk. the thought of it makes me queasy...

    ReplyDelete
  41. I love milk! I especially love it with anything with tomato sauce and on its own as a snack. When I was preggers I drank half a gallon day! It was the only thing that tasted good. I had a 10 lb baby!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yes, inded. I could live of milk. I love it! Fresh cold milk is the best! I drink ½ a litter each day!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Constantly.

    It is my drink of choice.

    ReplyDelete
  44. yeah milk is essential for any sweet baked good and PB&J. But I get weird looks as well when I order it or pour myself a glass at the office, guess it's not accepted by the designer code of conduct.

    ReplyDelete
  45. yes!! some foods absolutely require milk! pancakes. chocolate-chip cookies. (actually - anything chocolate likes milk.) coffee cake! (i don't drink coffee!)

    ReplyDelete
  46. yep!!! i love it...and it had to be skim milk in my cappucino but full cream milk to drink straight up - cold!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Nope, not so much - every now and then I will crave a cold glass of milk but the feeling usually passes once I realize that I NEVER keep milk in the house since it always goes bad! I love OJ though, but I like it much better at room temperature than when it's just out of the fridge...Is that weird?

    ReplyDelete
  48. yeah, i love milk! i prefer 2% or 1%. I hate skim milk and whole milk.

    ReplyDelete
  49. LOVE it.
    i need it w/ certain meals.
    and yes, peeps always think i am weird as well.

    ReplyDelete
  50. soy.

    there is a great market near my house that sells real, straight from the farm milk. i get it for my boyfriend because i cannot enjoy it myself, so i enjoy it vicariously through him!

    ReplyDelete
  51. NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    hate it!
    i have a friend that everytime she eats pizza she HAS to drink milk
    YUCK!

    ReplyDelete
  52. yes. pure hard core WHOLE milk. by itself. for 30 yrs every morning or a substitute to ANYTHING when i am hungry at night. so good for you.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I do not think you are weird at all! I adore milk just as much as you do, it seems, in that I will order a large glass of it at restaurants to coffee shops to delis... Milk straight up, 2 % or whole --- love it. Plus, it looks so beautifully crisp, white and delicious while it's sitting in a clear glass. It's lovely warm and helps me sleep, it's the perfect beverage.

    My dad used to tell me, "don't drink milk for dinner..." b/c I would always chug at least 2 glasses down before anything when I was young, and to this day at 28, I still do.

    I adore your blog, by the way!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I'm turning 38 next month and milk has been my favorite drink since birth. If i could only have one thing to drink, it would be milk. Viva la leche!!

    ReplyDelete
  55. its weird now that you mention it. because i drink milk (soy) ALL the time except its always with something else like cereal or when i'm washing down a delicious cupcake! (blog! http://cuntstorm.blogspot.com) i love milk, though.

    ReplyDelete
  56. rachel11:59 PM

    first comment, and it's about milk. yep, i'm that cool. milk is THE BOMB! so good for you, so delicious, good on cereal, good with cookies, good with fruit. oh, and how could i forget to mention milkshakes? you are most definitely a kindred spirit in this regard.

    ReplyDelete
  57. NO MILK HERE JO....I'm so allergic- so i only do rice, soy or the AWESOME AND POPULAR Chocolate Hemp MILK.

    With cakes, with biscuits, with sandwiches. YUM!!

  59. Nope, but I love soy milk. My husband loves milk !

    How funny that so many people believe milk is good for you! Milk is good for newborn babies - not for adults! That is why mammals only lactate after giving birth, and generally stop once their offspring triples its birth weight. Unless, of course, they are injected with tons of hormones. GROSS!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Nope, I'm a Soy milk girl too! It's so much better for you!

    ReplyDelete
  62. i love milk, especially with oreo cookies. yum.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Anonymous10:18 AM

    Yes, I have at least one drinking glass plus a bowl of wheat cereal with milk each day!! I find on the days I don't get my milk in I am hungry all day.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Hih, maybe a part of you is Northern European by spirit, as it is really common to drink milk here, people of all age do it, as idaida mentioned above. I'm Finnish, and I've drank milk all my life, and will continue to do so :).

    Big milk drinker myself. I think you are swiss at heart, Joanna.

  66. No milk for me! Ever since I found out how much calcium broccoli has I haven't thought twice about milk. Also I like soy milk in my coffee. It adds a certain something I think. :)

    ReplyDelete

    Yes I am dairy fabulous. I especially like it raw. If you've never had raw milk, you really should.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Does ice cream count?

    cuz if it does then I drink a lot of milk!!! hee hee

    ReplyDelete
  69. what an adorable picture. if drinking milk made me that cute, I'd drink it everyday. otherwise, I only take milk with my coffee or cereal.

    ReplyDelete
  70. raw milk? i'm curious....

    ReplyDelete
  71. this post is hilarious! i have a strange relationship with milk. i wish it weren't this way, but i can only drink milk in my own house. i can't explain it. i have to buy the milk and bring it home. i can't stomach milk anywhere else. hmmm...

    thanks for the posts! yay!

    ReplyDelete
  72. always, like 3 glasses at day

    ReplyDelete
  73. What a funny thing to read everyone's milk likes/dislikes. Those who love it (like me) are passionate about it.

    I now drink only organic or soy milk because I think it tastes better and I'm afraid of the hormones in regular. I like 1% in cereal, skim with ice for a beverage to accompany a meal, and chocolate soy for dessert/snacks.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Of course I drink milk! Living in Sweden this is a totally normal thing, everyone here drinks milk. So I have at least one glass a day, most often at dinner.

    However, I don't drink coffee, something that is considered VERY strange here in the land with the highest coffee consumtion in the world. It is almost like people don't see me as a real adult because of it...

    ReplyDelete
  75. :) i used to ALL the time, like 2 glasses a day! not so much now... i think i might try asking a coffee shop for a glass though, hehe

    ReplyDelete
  76. If I'm eating a REALLY big M&M cookie, yes. Otherwise, no.

    ReplyDelete
  77. I love milk! Especially when I'm eating anything chocolate!

    ReplyDelete
  78. All the responses cracked me up - and yes, when I worked in a restaurant, I never knew what to charge people! Personally, I don't go near the stuff - I've read too much about the industry and processes to enjoy it anymore...and Eden's unsweetened soy milk is great.

    ReplyDelete
  79. i LOVE milk!

    but it has to be cold and organic 2% (1% if I'm trying to be healthier that week).

    sometimes i'll eat a super rich cookie just so i can enjoy a glass of milk-- it's better than the cookie!

    ReplyDelete
  80. love milk!! My flatmate and I drink shots of milk (other flatmate thinks we're nuts though)

    ReplyDelete
  81. Most certainly I do! About 1.5 liters per day. So far I haven't found such a meal that milk wouldn't be the best drink with it.

    Well, it isn't that strange as we finns seem to drink more milk than others, more than 180 liters per year so half a liter per day is just the average.

    But it has to be fresh milk! The one that you have to keep in fridge all the time and stays good a week at maximum...

    ReplyDelete
  82. I love milk! Mostly with dinner or sometimes lunch, but even then people think I'm weird.

    Also, if you like milk based cocktails you would LOVE the bar El Chapandaz in Madrid, Spain. They have HUGE (I mean, as big as your head) cocktails and milk is the main ingredient in most of them. Yum!

    LOVE milk!!! I drink a gallon every 2 days. my bf now feels bad drinking milk because he knows how much I love it. I only drink skim milk (and soy and rice). Since I switched to non-fat whole milk grosses me out.

    I've never ordered it out, though now I may.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Sometimes I crave milk for days on end. Then I will go for weeks and not drink it at all. I have no idea what this is about. But I do love it. I drink skim milk. I always keep it in the fridge and when I'm not drinking it I end up throwing it out. It's just that odd.

    I adore your blog. I found it for the first time this morning. I've already added you to my list of fortune cookies so that I will be able to find you again and return often. It's just that good.

    Wishing you a wonderful Tuesday.

  85. thank you so much, cookie sunshine! i'm honored :)

  86. O M G! I can't get enough of it. :D
    My mum is actually trying to get me to cut down on it because I love it so much.
    We buy 1.5 liter bottles and by the next day it is all gone...I had nothing to do with it...
