remember the bottles of milk delivered to the doorstep - how the cream gathered in the neck of the bottle? Seldom seen now. Sad

You can see at my doorstep each morning.
You don't see the cream line anymore at supermarkets etc because it's all homogenised ie heated a little more than pasteurised but not as much as sterilised. You should all be supporting your local milkman ..... if he's still in buisness! Huh

My mate lives in preston and delivers the locals their pintas every morning. Good lad Thumbs Up!

My milkman says that every week someone is cancelling their delivery, people just look at the price difference between doorstep deliveries & the big supermarkets.

Just has some apple pie with double cream

Is it my imagination, or is double cream thinner these days than it used to be (not allowed it often so don't get much to compare it to!)

It shouldn't be as the butterfat content of cream which differentiates the different types of cream is subject to regulation, as for the "top of the milk" the vaste majority of milk available nowadays is homogionised which breaks down the cream content to such a degree that it cannot form as cream at the top of the bottle.
N.B sad git for knowing that but it's part of my job Huh

Untill very recently I used to get green top at my door ..... until the bloody EU put its 2 pen'orth in re raw milk etc. Angry

Yes, Stilton Cheese used to be nice, white, crumbly tasty stuff. The rubbish you now get from tesco's is sold in shrinkwrap, its greasy, the rind is pathetic, and the taste is ugh Lips Sealed

Proper Stilton on toast and grilled Thumbs Up!

In one there Andy Thumbs Up!

We should try to support all local traders as it might well be easier to walk to the shops in the near future, if the government eventually gets its way, rather than drive Thumbs Up!
