I could use it since I have raw milk with cream on the top. (I like to use the cream to make my own butter). Wow the milk used to be between 4.8 and 5.2! Yummy!! Nobody nowadays even knows what real milk tastes like! It’s such a cool little invention. I could use it since I have raw milk with cream on the top. (I like to use the cream to make my own butter).

They had a little square pull-off tab and were usually on the table in a little bowl. Really nothing to do with this topic, but that particular synapse fired when I read the article.

But it was killed by homogenized milk. And nowadays, with 2%, 1% and lower-fat milks, where's the cream anyway?
