Interesting. I wonder how safe this is and why they don't sell gimmicky products like this next to the milk at the store. Seems like it could really help cut down on wasted milk.

It’s a method with a long history. Prior to refrigeration, people would add a silver coin to their milk to make it last longer. Why do businesses that profit off of dairy not recommend this or sell products related to it? Probably just because it’s bad business.

Seriously?

You're telling us grocery stores are to sell chunks of silver, post signs with this information?

No, I’m saying it would be bad business to do that.
