I was amazed last week when I stopped at a roadside garage in the lake district, to find that bottled water cost me twice as much as milk. The supermaket price wars have even pushed the cost of 2 litre bottle down to 99p. Think about the health and quality of the cows needed to produce this, they'll need every vaccine, antibiotic and growth hormone you can pump into them! In some cases the farmers only get 10p a litre!
It is crazy, I will buy more goats milk and less but better quality milk from now on!
