I did the same thing your mother did. But we don’t drink much milk either. I make more pancakes etc. instead of cold cereal.
A gal. of milk here in MN is $3.49 give or take.
You can get cal. from other foods.

I am off to the kitchen to make powdered milk into milk… I have several packages that someone gave me and I have been putting off making it and mixing it with the regular milk. I grew up on powdered milk… One thing I remember is we never ran out of milk… My mom was so organized

I really need to do a price comparison for powdered milk. I’d be happy to use it for cooking. We only drink organic milk. I wonder if they have organic powdered milk and how much that costs???

My mom used powder milk for cooking/baking and I do that also. I’ve never been able to tell the difference (unless I have to actually drink it; just can’t do that).

I love powdered milk for bread recipes and homemade yogurt and some other things….
I’ve been wanting to use this AS MILK but thought I couldn’t pull it off! You abd Nancy (above) have challenged me…think I’ll have to try it:-)!

I also use powdered milk for my kids cereal. They still don’t know the difference. I also use it for cooking….much cheaper and so convenient when you are low on milk! Now, if I could just get myself to use it on my cereal….he he he. I grew up witha real milk cow for my milk….too much of the good stuff makes it hard to go back:)

I did an experiment with my family – I made up powdered milk, got it good and cold overnight, and put it into the milk container. No one noticed. (Disclaimer – we always drink nonfat milk!) Even if you only use it in cooking, you can save a lot. Some families use half powdered milk and half purchased milk, too.

Unfortunately we are not very healthy people – we don’t drink much milk except on cereal – we do love our cheese, but powdered cheese is really disgusting.
