Too short shelf life dates for delivered items.
Delivered 2.1.22 - use by date 4.2.22. Website shows it should have at least 5 days. If I felt confident that the dates would be longer I would order more - but I’ve been caught out too often! We have a weekly shop so 2 days just not good enough.
Something has changed
I've bought this organic milk for several years and it used to be no different than the ordinary for keeping quality but in the last 6 months or so it has been going off well before the use by date. What has changed? Supplier? storage method? Sadly I've now given up and gone back to non-organic.
Organic doesn't last well enough
I usually have filtered milk as it lasts longer. There has been no filtered and Tesco subbed with organic which is something I've never had before. There was 8 days on the use by date but it still went off after 6 days leaving me with no milk for tea or breakfast cereal. Being disabled it's not always possible for me to 'pop' to the closest shop for milk. This week once again there is no filtered milk, I wonder why not? They subbed again but this time with Tesco ordinary semi-skimmed which has 12 days for the use by date - much better (I asked in the sub notes for them to make sure that if they had no filtered to make certain the milk had the longest possible use by date, so well done Tesco on doing this). This should easily last a week.
Curdled still had 2days used by date
Milk had 2 days to go. Was still in fridge unopened and curdled. Waste of money and got no tea.
Organic milk turnover problems ?
I have disabilities and as such rely on home deliveries, I tried the organic whole milk for several deliveries rather than general whole milk. I suspect there is a lower turnover of supplies with organic products sadly, every time with organic milk there have been bottles selected with really short out of date notification. My carers have found bottles curdled though I turn over bottles quickly. Slow turnover or selection problems ?
Great organic milk
Great organic milk, worth the bit extra to know that cows better treated and not stuffed with antibiotics.
Out of date
Awful!! Avoid buying it - this is my 3rd gallon it’s still in date but reaks like it’s 3 wks old. I was physically sick.
Straight into fridge but went off well before date
The same as with the 2 pint size ,. it does not last long before going off BEFORE it's use by date , this has happened a few times now so ' organic ' milk is OFF the menu from now on ! B.T.W. it's the same as Yeo Valley milk as the codes are identical .
