Milk in schools

[JimO]

yea lets leave it in the sun like we used to in the 60s, good on frontera but who pays for the commercial chillers in every school

[Virago]

Right. Okay...

...who pays for the commercial chillers in every school

We thought we'd send the bill to you JimO...

....or, have milk biscuits like we did in the late 60's...chalky/hard milk biscuits

On a serious note...

I say about fuckin time the schools had free milk to give the kids again.


Back in the states the public schools (or the ones I was at) all had milk available. Some kids got it for free, some kids could buy it real cheap ($0.50 or something).

I'm waiting for the first howls of anguish from parents who want llama milk or non-astringent persimmon juice provided as an alternative for all of the wee dears who are lactose intolerant, GE free, allergic to Friesians, vegan, organic, or all of the above.

I also imagine that the costs of delivery to schools like Marco haven't been fully worked out yet either.

I would assume they'd use ultra pasteurized overly processed milk so they don't need commercial fridges

thats where the school needs to teach the parents a couple of words they are well past needing to hear... "Fuck Off"

We had simpler tastes back then. But if the clapped out old trucks and basic roading from 1937 to 1967 managed to deliver milk to every school, then it is a sad state of affairs if today's modern fleet and transport/roading infrastructure can't cope.

What annoys me is the social discrimination that only low decile schools up North might get it. I loved that morning tea break to slurp down some milk with the other Kids. Didn't matter what your parents did, what colour you were. You went to school - you got a drink.

[JimO]

dont know about you lot but my kids get enough milk at home

[unstuck]

fuck it, every school should just buy a couple of cows and teach the kids how to milk them, and the playing fields could get chewed out and fertilised saving some money. Then when the cow gets old enough just turn them into hamburgers and feed the little shits too. Kids should be getting all of their nourishment at home, some people just need to stop spending their $$ on fags and booze and weed and start looking after their fucking kids.

I heard it's only going to low decile schools (initially).

One doubts that Marco is particularly high decile.

I've got some free milk for hot lil jailbaits, all they need to do is put a blind fold on and suck it out of a hose.

It's not a bad idea but the milk they'll be drinking won't do them any good. Too processed / acidic.
