Wow, Provident Pantry milk is good! I’ve been drinking store-bought milk for decades and always hated powdered milk, even Organic Valley powdered milk. After reading this very thorough taste test, I had to try PP and am very surprised and very pleased! No aftertaste! (although I put in more powder than what is recommended, so I basically make 2% or whole milk). I would highly recommend this for food storage and/or for someone looking to cut their store-bought milk bill.

I purchased a 5 gallon bucket of Morning Moo… :o( I tasted it in the store and it tasted great but when I make it at home there is a weird after taste and white deposits at the bottom of the container. I mix it as they recommend with warm water etc. I have even mixed it in my blender thinking maybe I wasn’t getting it stirred up well enough but it still has the deposits at the bottom of the jug. I have a whole lot of milk alternative that I have no idea what to do with it. I don’t want to drink it and my husband is even fussier than I am. I drink powdered milk all the time and have no problem at all with that. I sure wouldn’t recommend Morning Moo to anyone. (I purchased cannery milk today because I can use it for yogurt, cheese, pudding, etc. I don’t think I can use the Morning Moo for that either…)

Too much writing and not enough information…

Thanks for doing this. I had to go back and look at the date when I saw how poorly the Cannery milk rated. My husband was unemployed for more than six months a while back and we had to get food from the Bishop’s storehouse. We got some of the powdered milk and having tried a fair number of powdered milks before my husband and I were both amazed that it tasted SO good. There was no powdery residue in the bottom of the jug and if you mixed it with just a little bit of cream for the milk fat we honestly couldn’t tell the difference. I even had friends try it and they were amazed. Maybe it’s just our area (CA bay area). I certainly hope not. We didn’t get the stuff in the can, but the stuff in the bag that came out like a soft sweet powder.

Thank you X 1,000 times!!! Ihad given up trying to find a decent tasting powdered milk and was searching for ideas on how to improved the horrible flavor – some people say add vanilla -but it never occurred to me that some tolerable tasting brands exist.

I live alone and like a little milk for cooking or oatmeal. I have been using dry powdered WHOLE MILK, from the local mexican grocery.

Nido brand from Nestle
$5.79 for 12.6 oz; makes 3 quarts
tastes like milk
mixes up pretty good
the round can is cardboard sides so it needs some help for long term storage. I have some tins of evaporated milk for longer term storage. Remeber to rotate your stock.

the morning moo’s is just a brand of auguson (was blue chip). They still have it on their site: http://augasonfarms.com/Products/Morning-Moos

Hopefully we’ll get a chance to review more of their stuff soon.
