How much milk do you drink a week?

Question

The USDA calculated the average American Adult drinks 12 pounds of milk a week, thats about 6 liters. Considering the big increase in milk $$ I think this skews the governments calculations for average food cost per family. I only use milk in my coffee, and occasional cooking, or white russian, so I dont even get close.

Answer 1

i dont drink milk often. if the date is good a half gallon will last about 3wks

Answer 2

I just don't drink milk.  But I know that 2 cups of water weighs one pound.  Since milk is denser, I would think that it weighs more, but for argument sake lets say milk weighed the same as water.  Then 12 pounds is only 24 cups, there are 16 cups in a gallon.

So 12 pounds is only about 1 and 2/3 gallons, IF milk weighed the same as water.

Answer 3

I drink about 1 cup a day, that's it.

Answer 4

I used to drink alot of milk, about 1.5 litres a day. Now, I only have about 100-200 ML in my cereal (one tenth to 1 fifth of a litre). That's it.

Answer 5

i drink about a gallon, thats taking into consideration using it for cooking and for cereal.

Answer 6

i drink little to no milk. i hate the taste.

Answer 7

A gallon usually lasts about a week. I normally have two glasses a day and a little in some of the foods I eat. If I have foods that have a bunch of milk I might only have 1 glass.

Answer 8

i drink as less milk as possible as milk makes me sick
