There's milk and there's MILK...

It might sound very silly but one on the things that I miss big time every time I go back to Spain is fresh milk.

Yep! For the exception of one brand, Letona, which (1) I personally do not like and (2) it comes only as full fat milk (not very extensive product range), there is little or nothing else to buy. Of course, you can always go for pasteurized milk, which can be in the supermarket shelf for years, and wont expire. Obviously, does not even taste close to real milk.

Almost every country I travelled to, there is a wide range of fresh milk brands and types (full fat, low fat, skimmed, with calcium, etc...). Just came from Australia and was the same case, but everytime I go to spain I have to go back to the sad, tasteless, boring, anti-milk.

Unfortunately, Spaniards do not have anything to compare against, so they believe what they drink is milk, but in fact is not.
