But let’s just say I already had been through college and established a career for myself.

At least no one had to tell me and I figured it out for myself, I guess.

    Nothing to do with how many cows are involved, but…

    If you mix milk that’s two weeks from going bad, with milk that’s two days from going bad, you now have twice as much milk that will go bad in two days.

      I was thinking more like having a glass of milk that’s like 1/3 full and drinking that and then putting more milk in the glass from the other jug. That’s what I used to do under the stupid assumption that if you mixed the milk from two different cows, something bad would happen.

      I don’t know why I held out for you to claim something like, ‘If you mix the milk that’s two days away from expiring, with milk that will expire in two weeks, you can essentially extend the two days away milk’s shelf life.’

      I swear I’m not that gullible.
