does anyone here drink cravendale?

[Arch]

I can't stand the adverts. It's just milk with a huge amount of expensive branding attached. Isn't the filtering just a lot of hokum?

I like the adverts, but I do tend to assume it's hokum to some extent - hence my reluctance to buy it.

I have Cravendale whole milk.

I don't have any choice in the matter as my Mother buys it. She buys regular supermarket skimmed milk for herself and Cravendale whole milk for me. Apparently because it lasts longer (I only have milk in coffee, whereas she has milk on her breakfast cereal).

But she does always buy the big four pint bottles from the Supermarket. If I did the shopping, I would just get small ones from the local co-op or (preferably) have the milk man bring it.

I have found that most things, including milk and cream last considerably longer than the used by date when in my fridge.

My current Cravendale code is PAHP3YAR3KN if anyone wants it

Thatl you very much steve

Er, no, in a word. It *is* filtered; it *does* last longer. If that matters to you, it makes sense. It's the milk for the (increasingly) singleton society.

I don't drink cravendale. Then again, I don't drink milk! I have soya milk on the Dr's recommendation.

btw, the cyclist sits proudly atop the teapot offered as part of the deal.

I think Cravendale tastes nicer than other milk, and we get through a 2 pinter every two days. I'm also collecting the codes too, so if any pop up on here I may be tempted. Just to warn you.

How much milk do you have to get through for the teapot?

How much milk do you have to get through for the teapot?

And when did they start doing codes? I like Cravendale but at the price compared to "normal" milk I tend to only buy it now and again.

 

[taxing]

How much milk do you have to get through for the teapot?

25 bottles (or 22 bottles and referring 3 friends), but the promotion is running until February so I reckon it's doable.

Why has nobody ever thought to design a mug with a built in biscuit holder before ? We get through 5 of the big bottles every week so it won't take long.

 

[taxing]

They have, I've seen a few. Only problem is I like chocolate digestives, and they won't last long in the bottom of my cup.

I find it still tastes fresh after a good few days, it doesn't get that slightly offish taste. Wouldn't have anything else now.

Sainsbury's are doing 2x2l for 2.50, which works out cheaper than normal milk for now.

Here's two codes for you:

As taxing says - I've seen them before too! (Lakeland catalogue a few years ago I think?)

I buy Cravendale semi-skimmed for the cereal and full-fat for the tea. I find it oftain lasts longer than a week after opening.
