Country Cream 100% Real Instant Nonfat Powdered Milk 49.6 OZ

Don't buy this product! Total waste of money. Something that should have a long shelf life, expires in 2 weeks! Total waste of $40

Product is fine AFTER you manage to mix it. Although "instant" appears in the name, it isn't. Comes as a fine powder, rather like flour, which sits unassimilated on top of the liquid in which you're trying to dissolve it. Requires lots of stirring or beating, and may require passing through a strainer to remove the undissolved lumps. In case you think I have unrealistic hopes for an instant milk product, I am specifically comparing it to Smart & Final "First Street" Instant Nonfat Dry Milk, which comes as low-density granules rather than a powder, dissolves MUCH more easily-- and will be my choice hereafter.

Like a good old boy from Texas, I grew up drinking milk every day. My Mom would literally have to buy a gallon a day because I drank so much. Well, I don't drink as much nowadays but I still love it. This has to be the best-tasting powdered milk ever. The other milk powders I've tried, have a funky yeast taste that is like a protein drink. This tastes just like regular milk in the jug. I cannot tell the difference and that is a big deal to me. I add it to cereal and it tastes wonderful. I have tried so many different brands, and this one is by far the closest to regular milk. I take it camping and just mix it with cold water. It's fantastic. I will never buy anything else. Be sure to use a whisk, this breaks up the lumps really well. It forms a foam on the top as a result, but it's not a big deal. I use cold water from quart-sized bottles you get at the store. Mix it up in a bowl and pour it back in the same bottle. Using a spoon to mix just doesn't work because it doesn't break up the powder efficiently enough. Five stars.

The photo on Amazon at the time I bought this product showed very clearly on the front label "20 quarts." The can I received is labeled "16 quarts" and it is obvious from the mixing directions that is all it will make. The can received makes 20% less than what was advertised.

While the milk itself is good, I had to ding it one star for the awful packaging. I've bought similar packages before, and generally they either have a removable top or one of those pull tabs to open. Not this one. No clear way to open it at all, and my can opener doesn't quite reach the metal (it's a high lip). Ended up having to use the pointed opener tool that's meant for cans of liquids to punch holes in the top so I can pour the powdered milk out. Inconvenient. But again, the milk is good once you can get it out! :)

I have been drinking this milk for some tie now. I live out in the country and it is a distance to the store...... and I like milk. When you mix it corectly in accordance with the instructions it is very good. I have never tasted a better instant milk.

I've tried many brands and they don't taste good.This brand is my favorite, just keep adding powder until it taste good! Takes a little while to get it mixed up,gets foamy which is a good thing! Good option for end of world or if you don't have a refrigerator,etc... Camping trips , boating.Big can,lasts awhile...

"Country Cream 100% Real Instant Nonfat Powdered Milk 49.6 OZ" One of the best! Easy to mix, great taste, will last a life time! One good idea is to use a whisk makes stirring much easy = no clumps. Highly recommend especially if you are staying safe during the CORVID-19 Pandemic !!!!!!
