oh, also, soy milk seems to have an expiration date of like (exaggerating) a year. -- nm - Max May 28, 09:41 29
- cause it is sealed, so little to no bacteria, once you open it up, stuff can get into it and make it go bad - tRuMaN May 28, 09:45
- soy milk is not milk you can get a equal long life with UHT milk -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 28, 09:44
- totally. but once you open it, it doesn't last for very long. a couple days for the boxes i've noticed, maybe up to 3 weeks for the stuff you find - kare May 28, 09:42 8
  - "protective atmoshphere" in the pacakig means "low level radiontion that kills germs and bacteria" - Danedukenuuk May 28, 09:51
  - word -- nm - Guy May 28, 09:49
  - Yeah, I suspect there's something there that says drink *** days after opening. -- nm - Callisto May 28, 09:44 5
    - I think the one I have says 3 or 4 weeks. but I could be wrong. -- nm - tRuMaN May 28, 09:45 4
      - most of the ones ive tried say 7-10 days after opening. -- nm - Guy May 28, 09:50 3
        
        like I said, I could be wrong. not at home. - tRuMaN May 28, 09:57 2
        
        Soy Dream, Trader Joe's... prob a few others, but I drink mostly rice milk now -- nm - Guy May 28, 09:59 1
        
        yick. -- nm - tRuMaN May 28, 10:07
- just as well - it would probably take me a year to drink a whole carton of soy milk -- nm - Roger More May 28, 09:42 12
  - it's weird how soy milk now tastes benign to me like regular milk used to. regular milk on the other hand tastes like rot. -- nm - kare May 28, 09:43 11
    - I actually don't drink either. When I was about 4, I saw my baby brother dribbling milk out of his mouth, and I stopped drinking milk altogether. - Roger More May 28, 09:47 1
      - hey Roger, look at me: mmmm, woman. -- nm - Max May 28, 09:48
    - I'm with you. Soy milk tastes so much better. -- nm - Callisto May 28, 09:44 8
      - I still cant really use soy milk with cereal though. - tRuMaN May 28, 09:47 7
        
        have you tried rice milk? i much prefer it to soy - no aftertaste. -- nm - Guy May 28, 09:50
        
        I'm okay with it, though I've gone to fat free for cereal recently. - Callisto May 28, 09:48 5
        
        i wish soy ice stuff was cheaper though - tRuMaN May 28, 09:50 4
        
        Healthy food is so much more expensive than bad-for-you food. - Callisto May 28, 09:51 3
        
        milk is excaptionally cheap in most of the EU right now...in fact farmes regularily protest over the low prices -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 28, 09:58 1
        
        Well, I think all groceries are over-expensive right now (and have thought so for about a year and a half). - Callisto May 28, 10:05
        
        well, regular milk is bad for me, but I know what you are saying. - tRuMaN May 28, 09:53
- it is a long, long shelf life. But it seems to hold up fine. -- nm - Callisto May 28, 09:42 4
  - But I need to know the chemistry here. Dano! -- nm - Max May 28, 09:42 3
    - as kare says, it's the packaging. - Reagen May 28, 09:48 2
      - its also the bacteria level and such. -- nm - tRuMaN May 28, 09:56 1
        
        Yeah, but it'll go bad just the same as cow's milk after it's opened. - Reagen May 28, 10:04
