I tend to be more of a risk taker when it comes to food though. I definitely wouldn't risk it on the kids though. And definitely when we buy the low temp pasteurized non-homogenized stuff, it does smell different than the store bought stuff. More "milky" for lack of a better word, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-the-milk-gone-bad#post-879096 Mon, 24 Jun 2013 09:18:55 +0000 Koolbreeze 879096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would toss it for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-the-milk-gone-bad#post-879053 Mon, 24 Jun 2013 09:07:00 +0000 IRunForFun 879053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd dump it. I'm paranoid about that stuff, but 12 hours unrefrigerated is too much in my opinion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-the-milk-gone-bad#post-879036 Mon, 24 Jun 2013 09:01:47 +0000 chopsuey 879036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would toss it..! 12 hours is too long </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-the-milk-gone-bad#post-879026 Mon, 24 Jun 2013 08:56:11 +0000 mrswin 879026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I would chuck it unfortunately :( My DH is a chef and his comment is that when it has been out at "room temp" (your car was probably a little warmer than outside) for that long bacteria starts to grow and if the milk hasn't already spoiled it is will shortly....<br /> Not sure if the smell is because it is not homogenized or if it is just a little off already.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-the-milk-gone-bad#post-878990 Mon, 24 Jun 2013 08:43:44 +0000 regberadaisy 878990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last week we left a gallon of milk in the car overnight. However, it was a very cool day and night. Low 50's overnight and it was probably in the car from about 7p - 7a?</p> <p>I opened it this morning and it didn't smell "sour" but it smelled different. But it's also low temp pasteurized non homogenized milk. So does anyone know if that smells different than regular store bought milk??</p> <p>I tested it first in my coffee this morning and so far no issues?</p> <p>What do you think? Good or bad? Should I give it to LO (14 months) or just use it myself? </p>
