You are all making me glad I don't drink milk.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The trick is to take a sniff before you look at the "best by" date. Then you're all objective and stuff.
Theodosia is wise.
Of course, the most science-y way is to do a double-blind test. But for that you'll need some fresh milk to serve as the control, plus some volunteers.
I was thinking chunks in the liquid.
I'ld never let it get that bad. (Although in college I let the salsa con queso dip get furry. I regreted opening that jar.)

I agree.

Volunteers who aren't me.
That's what helper monkeys are for.

Sometimes a person just gets forgetful. And by "a person," I mean me. Plus, I've noticed that Trader Joe's organic liquid dairy products (milk, half-and-half) go bad really quickly. I expect them to last longer, and then WHAMMO! solids in the milk.
Other organic milk -- I usually drink Horizon -- has a MUCH longer shelf life than plain old Kroger non-organic milk. Weird.

Eh, you could have just scraped it off....
I don't think I've ever given myself food poisoning. I've had chinese takeout go very wrong over 24 hours (I guess. I ate. 15 minutes later, it reversed path.) but that was likely not my fault.
All milk smells bad to me, so I just don't drink it.
When I moved out of the first apartment I lived in away from home, we threw away a jar of black mayonnaise that was hiding behind the baking soda. My roommate—who'd lived there several years longer than I—had no idea where it came from.

Have you been taking cooking hints from Sean?
I got the nastiest food poisoning once from some slices of pizza I bought (from a place that had the slices sitting under a heat lamp for God knows how long).
I was throwing up about once every half-hour for 12 hours. I felt like crap for almost three days.
