Milk

I never noticed until I started living by myself just how quickly milk goes off. And when it goes off, it gets really disgusting. I almost expect it to happen at my flat, as it's just me, and I don't always want a coffee in the evening after spending all day drinking it at work. But I do expect it to be okay at work, where there are lots of people. I went to make myself a (styrofoam) cup of coffee this morning, and as I poured the milk in, I noticed it was clear, followed by a small lump. Resisting the urge to be sick, I poured the entire drink down the sink and made myself a hot chocolate instead. I guess the milk had been there all weekend, just like the rest of the milk in the frige. Most appeared to already be open, and I didn't want to try the other milk. I'm about to make my third cup of hot chocolate now, my body desperately craves some caffeine right now, especially as I woke up early in order to drive here (the M4, somewhat comfortingly, was its usual busy self again). I can't wait to get back to my office, and make myself some real coffee (and not Gold Blend) with fresh milk.

Filtered milk. Either Cravendale or Tesco's own. Tastes as nice or nicer than normal milk, only it lasts a month.
