Yes, I'm your neighbor who lets my dog sh*t on your lawn, I steal your cool catalogs, park in front of your house and host loud parties you're not invited to. Yet when you come ding-donging to offer me a half gallon of opened milk I'm going to eagerly take it.

Yes, I'm your coworker constantly taking your personally bought office supplies off your desk when you're not there, taking credit for projects you've busted your *ss on, and badmouthed you behind your back, but when you sashay into the office to offer me a third of a gallon of opened milk I'm going to eagerly take it.

I have a bucket for kitchen scraps that I throw in an undeveloped wooded area on my property. It gets decomposed by the bacteria and fungus in the soil. I would add the milk there. I am feeding the soil.

This. I don’t have 100s or even 10s of gallons of spoilt milk. Maximum is some leftover at the bottom of milk bottle.

Oh my gosh. Think about what y'all put down the drain from the OTHER END. And you're going to be precious about milk and pasta water?

I think that article is bogus. It says milk would be bad for water systems because of it uses a lot of oxygen when it breaks down. But milk down your drain goes to blue plains, where it would be fully digested by bacteria in aerated (mixed) vats before being filtered a bunch of different ways. The water that leaves blue plains is really really clean. The facility is a global leader.

If you live in DC proper and you’re on a combined sewer I guess you could try not to put milk down the drain during heavy rain. And obviously don’t dump it in a storm drain.


Yeah, the link to the source for the “don’t put it down the drain” thing is from a UK source about businesses dumping milk. They’re talking about dairy farms and the like and not household drains connected to municipal sewage systems.
