[net.cooks] milk

uess I missed the part where someone said that "bacteria cannot digest
homogenized milk" ... but the suggestion that this is true seems easily
refuted:  after all, my homogenized milk never seems to have any trouble
going sour (-- esp. since I am lactose intolerant myself, and use milk
only in small amounts anyway, therefore leaving it in the reefer for
longish times)  and souring of milk is a bacterial process.  (as secondary
evidence for that, *sterilized* milk is sold in Europe, on shelves unrefrig-
erated, and has a shelf life of some months.
