Milk

[callmewhatever]

Seeing as tho u can get flavoured milk at b'fast time, do they also have cartons of fresh plain milk (skim). Thank's

[Beth C]

yes - skim, 2% (I think... I always get skim to drink), homogenized (3.25%) as well as chocolate :)

I "think" that the choc is 2%, IIRC.

On Independence there are small cartons of skim and whole milk available for breakfast cereal. Skim and whole milk from the dispensers are also available for tea and coffee.

[Langley Cruisers]

Yes, on Jewel recently the carton choices were skim and whole. At dinner one night I asked for a glass of milk as I was not feeling well and again, the choices were skim and whole, no 2%. I did not see chocolate milk but have no doubt it would have appeared had I desired it. :)

Will be good to get real milk. We usually cruise with Princess and they use long life.......:eek:

[MzGemini]

Do they charge extra for milk or is it complimentary?

[Riggy84]

It's complimentary. They are right next to the cereals at breakfast and i'm sure you can order some off room service as well.

Where do you get the flavoured milk from?

Really??? wow that might have just put me off cruising Princess in the future!

Choc is right next to the boxes of "white" milk near cereal choices at breakfast. Just ask if you do not see it at lunch and in the MDR they will be glad to bring you a glass.

Really? On all of my Princess cruises I have been able to get real milk...in cartons in the buffet, in the dining room, from room service. I have NEVER seen long life milk on Princess. They had skim, 2% whole and chocolate.

[lady_cruiser]

I'll bite. What is "long life" milk? Do you mean skim?

[cb at sea]

I buy "ultra-pasturized" milk at home....it lasts about 3 times longer than regularly pasturized milk. It IS "real" milk.....just has less chance of going bad within a given time frame! It still must be refrigerated. It's NOT the kind of milk that can be stored in a cabinet and comes in a box.

We all know that chocolate milk comes from brown cows :):D:D

Long life milk....can be stored in the cupboard b4 opening. We have been on Dawn, Sun & Sea and they have all used long life. Maybe because they sail out of Australia????

When I was on the Liberty of the Seas in February, I could not find 2% or 1% milk anywhere. They always had skim milk. On our next cruise if I can't find 2% milk I will ask someone for it. Something I didn't think of doing the last time for some odd reason.

What ship are you asking about?

 

We were on Rhapsody in Oct/Nov this year and the only milk available was long life Devondale in the small tetra packs.

 

Did not see any chocolate milk in cartons, just sachets for making hot chocolate.

 

You can get milkshakes at the coffee shop - Latte-tudes / Ben & Jerrys - you will have to pay of course.

 

My daughter did order a chocolate milk at the MDR and they made it up for her.

 

Actually the sachets of hot chocolate were called "Swiss Miss" and they were delicious - they are available at the coffee/tea stations throughout the ship.

I don't think they have it. I was offered only skim or whole milk. Of course you can make your own by mixing the two together - not perfect but worth a try.

[callmewhatever]

I was talking about Voyager of the sea's. :D

They had boxes for the first 10 days of our 14 night. Then they switched over to the 'shelf' milk.

Yes, do you know why? I know why, pick me pick me! Because the expiry date on the cartons was Nov 13. They pulled them on Nov. 11, I specifically remember that. My guess is they still used the milk but did not want pax to see it. :D

Cheers, thanks Sandy Toes and, er... stevea.

The chocolate is fat-free. My son had it in his Rice Krispies every day for the past nine days.:)
