That comes later, silly...
Is your bottle larger than 3.4 oz.? If so, TSA might confiscate it.
No just the right size.
No point in buying powdered milk anymore.
In the 80’s I was living in Germany. My girlfriend asked if I wanted some milk and got up and pulled a box out of the cupboard. I had never seen such a thing as she popped the box open and started to pour. Turns out they had been using shelf stable milk for a while by that time. I don’t know why it never really caught on here in the States.
I moved back home and somewhere along the line I stumbled on Gossner Foods shelf stable milk. I keep a good stockpile in the pantry.
I couldn’t tell you where I first found it but I know that I still buy it today at Dollar Tree $1/qt.
Unlike powdered milk it tastes good. It requires no refrigeration and comes in a unit small enough to use quickly so that you can just use it all before it would be required after opening. In tough times I wont have to worry about clean water to use it.
Definitely one of those things that every responsible American should have a case or two minimum on hand and its so cheap that there is no reason that someone cant afford to do so.
This Wu Flu cold bug has been circulation for months. Yet there are apparently ZERO cases of healthy young people dropping dead in the streets of America from it. Now how could that be?
Now we going to shut down the country for a month or two? Over what? This is deranged. Have we lost our minds?
The main point is to delay the spread of the disease through social isolation. That allows our medical systems to deal with it without overflowing.
Erring on the cautious side seems like a good idea. Unless it’s somehow ok to overwhelm our hospitals and have more people die.
So we are going to shut down the country once every 10 years when a bug like the Wu Flu pops up? Insane and unsustainable.
The economic damage will take years to recover from. Hourly workers from a variety of areas will be out of work.
Right.
So the big trick for the government is to balance the virus propagation speed against the damage to the economy.
Not to mention the politics of an election year.
For what it’s worth, I’ve been buying during this downturn.
Market is rocketing up now. Somebody is buying Big Pharma. They are going to make a killing on that $50 billion stimulus package.
A pity for them or perhaps a poor choice since their primary focus as I recall was on destroying the Second Amendment at that time.
Plan ahead....

You’ll have to give it a five treatments. Typical bleach solution needs 10 minutes to destroy the virus. Except it dries out in two minutes.
I checked out the “Gossner Foods shelf stable milk”.
It doesn’t need refrigeration until it’s opened, but it still has a 1 month expiration date.
The batch you were looking at was old for some reason. The expiration date should be a year from production. I don’t wait for them to put it on the shelf, I have the kid run in back and grab the new case.
The other thing you can do to get the fresh stuff is order on line and they deliver your new case to the store.
Yup
