bad habits

I have a carton of Californian milk in my kitchen.

You see, I’ve been known to purchase strange beverages and they usually don’t result in anything good. Case in point:

  1. this bottle of random liquid from 7-11 for $19 HKD. It smelled like gasoline, and didn’t taste any better (unless, of course, you like the smell of gasoline).
  2. Pirate beer. I bought it because of the pirate. In its defence, it wasn’t terrible.
  3. Random Korean drink with a mushroom in it. It was terrible.

So I was down at the Park n Shop near my apartment the other day and with the price of bottled milk up 25% in recent weeks, I had to resort to buying milk in cartons for home (I still drink bottled milk only because I think it tastes better, just less often now). So imagine my surprise when I saw this in the milk aisle:

Milk from California? That went straight into my shopping basket. It doesn’t look sketchy at all. I mean its a “MILK BEVERAGE” (milk can come in non-beverage form?) and “MADE FROM FRESH MILK”
