    Drink UHT milk and save the planet

    According to The Times today, we will soon be urged to start using UHT milk. The reason for this latest fad? It's because we will be saving the planet by not refrigerating normal, pasteurised milk. If we all change over, greenhouse gas emissions will fall, and that is good for all of us.

    My response: Have you ever tasted the stuff? Vile doesn't begin to describe it for me. It will mean less refrigeration units in shops, but there's no way I'm pouring that stuff on my cornflakes.

    Andrew,

    That made me laugh.

    I agree, it's minging (as my 15 year old daughter would say).

    Yecch!

    This sounds a bit knee jerk to me. How much more does UHT milk cost to make? It would make sod all difference domestically as we will still need fridges- for beer.
