I bought a litre today with a use by date of 26/07/06. Had me Frosties this morning and put the carton in the fridge. Have now just gone to make a cup of coffee and there's little bits of white lump floating all over the top. Smelt the bottle - yeooowwww.

The temperature in the fridge is OK and nothing else goes off as quickly as that.

Its the semi-skimmed stuff and the cartons have a "Dairy Farmers of Britain" trade name.

Here endeth the rant.
Point of order, but Dairy Farmers of Britain isn't a tradename - it's the collective term for a huge number of dairys that can supply all over the place. Actually, I'd be interested to hear where you bought it from, as you often find that the seller isn't storing the product properly

Having said that, I'm with Cobbydaler on this one - I always but the plastic bottles, purely because you can reseal them.
