Milk - Best Before

Odd it goes off so quickly. Smell it. If it doesn't smell metallic, then it's fine. Once it's open it should go off quicker obviously.

Simple solution, buy less milk if you are not using it in time?

EDIT: Just looked at the dates. 2 days and your milk goes off? Seems a little unusual to me.. are you a little OCD by chance, or easily offended by smells? (no offence intended)

Another vote for Cravendale.Lasts 7 days opened in the fridge no problem.
Just a question for OP,is your fridge working properly?Should have a temp of 4 or 5 degrees.

Tesco organic skimmed and lasts at least until the use by date.
