I decided a while back it was too much of a faff & just cultivated a taste for black coffee.

I don't drink instant though. Plan b blag a handful of the milk sachets from McDonalds or some such, they store well (thumbs)

5 weeks and a day ( and I'm not counting either!) - off to land of open roads again.
Never had a problem buying fresh milk in Norway, semi skimmed, and you can add it to powdered tomato soup to improve it. Did try some coffee mate but rather not take and have black coffee.

I use these all the time. As simple as it gets and good tasting too.

Have also used the McD's milk sachets - gather a supply up a couple of weeks before you go & store them in a small sealable plastic container.

Every time here too (thumbs)

Grew up loving the stuff, as a child, we used to butter sliced white bread and use sweetened condensed milk as the filling!! Yummy!! :laugh:

You can drink this as fresh milk. Nothing else comes close

Who stocks this stuff ?

MORRISONS 400 gms @ £3.75
ASDA 900 gms @ £7.50
perfect for drinks and porridge
used for a week instead of milk and now i can't tell the difference have to admit its best to make a bottle up in the evening instead of just adding the powder to drinks and food .

Why not just by uht milk...its sold everywhere hmy:

Do a test. Make your tea and or coffee in one of those travel mugs with a lid. Drink it out of those for a couple of days/week and you'll get used to it. Plus not taking the milk substitute will leave room for more beer (thumbs)

???????? Oih???

I'm a tea drinker. Milk is a very integral part of the tea process as discussed by a few of us over breakfast this morning. Tea for its best needs 'proper' fresh full fat milk and anywhere I go I will suss it out in no time. As for half fat milk in tea, it's like beer diluted with 50% water.

My mate drinks coffee and goes to great trouble also to get proper milk on his trips. Like me, he brings his coffee and I bring my tea.

As for milk substitute........that's like calling a bicycle a motor cycle substitute.
