I used to be able to use a whole gallon, then I ended up tossing out half when it went bad. Now, I will put half in a jug and take it to work so we can use it in coffee.

Nothing is worse than putting milk in your first groggy cup of coffee and seeing chunks rise to the top. Well… worse is when you don’t notice the chunks and take a big chug.
