What kind of / How much dairy do you/your family use?

[WMR]

I'm a huge skim milk guy. Probably drink a little over a gallon of skim milk a week.

Also love cottage cheese.

I only drink soy milk, but eat cheese everyday. Typically, a few slices of mozzarella or a couple of scoops of cottage cheese with dinner. Provolone, cheddar, asiago, fontina and parmigiano also come into play quite a bit.

Cream cheese, ricotta and mascarpone for when you need the sweet dessert cheeses.

If it weren't for cheese and cashews, I'd probably weigh 15 lbs less than I do now.

I usually have a 16 oz skim milk every morning, with two shots of espresso. And vanilla. And NO FOAM.

NONE.

You guys got 1/2% milk? That was our stuff...

[pahster]

I drink about 2 gallons of 1% a week. I drink it like most people drink pop.

I'm from Ohio. It's "pop" there. I get soda; it makes sense, but I don't say it. I live in the North Carolina now and I will never understand calling pop/soda "coke."

Those people frighten me.

"I'll have a coke"
"What kind?"

[Cyclone792]

I drink 2 percent reduced fat milk, typically one to two gallons per week. I also like most cheese, with mozzarella, jack, provolone, and cheddar being some of my favorites. Interestingly, while I don't mind american cheese, it's probably one of my least favorites.

As for pop/soda/coke, it's pop here. And below is where it is everywhere:

[Ltlabner]

A little skim milk on breakfast ceral.

Occasonal chochlate milk.

Cheese......yes. On everything. Not a big fan of Swiss but pretty much everything else is groovy.

Oh yea. It's Soda. Or Pop. Maybe even Soda-Pop. The only thing that is Coke is...well....a product from the Coca-Cola Company.

[TRF]

Ice Cream, half a gallon a week. Blue Bell when it's on sale, and Wal-Mart new All-Natural(whatever) Blueberry/Pomegranate Ice Cream. That stuff is like crack.

Also Fat Free milk, and lots of shredded cheddar cheese.

[M2]

I drink about 2 gallons of 1% a week.

Same here. Bowl of cereal every morning, heavy on the milk. Another glass or two during the day.

Beyond that, I eat a bit of cheese and yogurt every week too.

[Roy Tucker]

Mark me up for the gallon or 2 per week. Milk on my morning Cheerios, a glass of milk before bed, and sometimes one with dinner. Yogurt for lunch sometimes.

My wife and 2 daughters *love* ice cream so there is usually a gallon or so in the freezer. I try to limit myself to 1-2 bowls a week. Although with the holidays here and peppermint stick ice cream abounding, I've been backsliding.

I think we end up buying at least 3-4 gallons of milk a week because my son drinks the stuff like its going out of style. I've often said we need to buy a cow.

[RollyInRaleigh]

My family goes through at least 4 gallons of skim milk a week. My son loves it and drinks it with every meal. He usually has a large glass most every day when he gets home from school and before he goes to bed. My wife and I are also milk drinkers and we eat a lot of cereal. We don't buy pop and only have it in the house on limited occasions, usually when we have company.
