I have buttermilk in the fridge almost all the time. Good buttermilk is not easy to find out West and many stores do not even carry buttermilk on their shelves.I use this for my biscuits but...
Sometimes I like my buttermilk straight! It is one of those days!
For the record, every buttermilk on the shelves of stores I've seen states "low fat"... Weird....

Update on ww2 vet’s age—guy on a walker actually just turned 95 in april—his buddy, ww2/korean vet, just turned 96 around the same time. older guy drives him around and doesn’t look his age. 🇺🇸
Throw it away!!! It's way out of date!!!!!Buttermilk is the only kind if milk i’ve ever drank since i’ve been old enough to hold a cup. weird i guess. one of my favorite morning snacks is leftover cold pizza with cold buttermilk straight from the jug—no biggy since nobody drinks it but me.
This is very good too but about twice the price.
We'll keep them both as long as we can. 🗽

Our garden is doing good. But we had no, nada, zero cicadas....so maybe that has something to do with it. Tomato plants are so big and bushy it's hard to see if we have any ripening yet. Don't think so. We got about 2 bushels of squash, zuchini, and cukes yesterday (she made 4 loaves of zuchini bread today). Corn is tall and green with no blight, etc. Potatoes look good. Got a few onions.
Our peppers, hot and bell, are thriving and the herbs are growing like gangbusters. Maybe this is just a down year, kind of like last season's UK basketball. So glad though that you've got a prosperous garden. Enjoy the bounty!

I agree with you. Best use for buttermilk is soaking chicken for frying. Buttermilk is love or hate, kind of like raw oysters. Love raw oysters.
You make a great point.
My dad did as well. He would mix cornbread and buttermilk and eat it. Another one of his favorite things was lettuce and onions with hot grease.
Wonder if any of the antifa 'moms' from Seattle/Portland last year are related? Daughters of? Granddaughter?Watched a documentary on the Mason women last night. Such sweet gals. No way they could commit such heinous crimes.
My Dad loved that too. Ugh! Mom used to make, and Dad loved it, a salad using bacon grease. Imagine about the same thing. Now that I liked. Haven't had for years.
Whoops! I corrected my type-o. Manson women not Mason. That could have ticked off a lot of good people.
Wilted lettuce salad is still popular with some folks. i had it many times at my grandma’s. fresh leaf lettuce and chopped green onions out of her garden with hot grease from fried salt bacon. pretty damned good. some people add a little vinegar to the grease. i’ve made it, like forty years ago, minus the bacon, using hot peanut or canola oil. i haven’t had a slice of bacon or any red meat in 22 years.
Those were crazy days to be in LA.
Our garden is going gang busters......I planted potatoes on 4-27, the garden got planted on 5-18 and the sweet potatoes were planted on 5-27......we have canned green beans and made a few quarts of pickles.....I plan on digging the potatoes and can most of them....I planted a row of Yukon Gold potatoes and so far we are getting about 3-5 lbs per hill.......most of the seed potatoes were cut into quarters so.....each potato planted is coming up with about 15-20 pounds..........the only bug repellent I have used is the agricultural lime the "G" man recommended twice and no chemical fertilizers........
When the Director and myself first got married her mother would come up from NC two to three times a year......the Director's brother would drive her up.......before she left home she would cook up enough cornbread to last the FIL while she was gone.......the only damn thing the man would eat the whole time she was gone was cornbread and buttermilk they made on the farm......I can't get past the first bite.......he told me he liked it better than ice cream and cake.....
They say it is from the fires out west. Those states are the "green" states but they don't manage their forest or scrub land at all and cause all the problems for the rest of the nation. I drove to Thompkinsville, KY. The haze was the worst that I have seen in 20 years. We rednecks in Kentucky don't appreciate those tree hugger out west messing with our clean air.
I drove close to Thompkinsville on July 13 to visit my cousin in TN. Traveled 249 out of Glasgow. Got behind a couple tractors. Driving 14-17 MPH for 11 miles on those twisting roads really gets on a person's nerves.
