Milk in Cambodia

Hey I wanted to let everyone know about a new food development I found!

I have lived in Cambodia for over two years, and in most of that time I have refrained from drinking milk due to the expensive prices and poor quality. If I really had to have milk, I would usually drink the UHT boxed Cowhead milk simply because it was cheap. I have drunk Dutch Mill and Meiji milk, but neither tasted good like milk that I was used to back in the States. Then I discovered Moo Moo Farms milk. Unlike the other milks that are brought from Thailand or Vietnam, it is produced locally in Cambodia by an American. You can really taste the difference between Moo Moo Milk and the other milks. It is definitely the closest thing to fresh American milk in Cambodia. Now I drink milk regularly. The only drawback is that they only produce whole milk right now, but for me it is worth it to drink real milk. The prices are competitive with Dutch Mill and Meiji milk and sometimes slightly more expensive, but the taste is far superior and worth it for me. They sell Moo Moo Milk at Aeon, Lucky's, and several other places that I've seen around PP.

Have you ever tried this milk, and if you have, do you like it as much as I do? Real milk!

Good infomertial. If Lucky ever have it in there 50% off section, and I don't​ consider it still too expensive, I'll give it a go.
I'm probably not the market your after though. Good idea, though I wish foreign businessmen would sometimes take the opportunity of introducing quality while at the same time reducing the stupid prices here. Show by example - don't just join in, kind of thing.

Do the cows have to wear bloomers or can you just see their naked titties?

I never noticed any discernible difference between fresh Dutch Mill milk and the milk we get back in the UK, other than it tends to have a shorter shelf life even in the fridge.

moomoo milk is great, normally we kill these link spams- but in this case the product is of extremely high quality.

The is not possible with Khmer cows as far as I know. Rural locals have informed me that they lactate only when they have calves. Stranger yet there is a former killing field near where I live that is referred to as the former Japanese Dairy.

Perhaps I am wrong but I don't believe milk products form an essential part of Japanese diet and Khmer don't use it, so who bought the dairy products and what breed(s) of cows did they use? My CEO funeral shirt is offered as a prize for the most likely answer.

^You mind fixing that quote Taa. Thx
(I grew up drinking that plastic bag milk along with fresh milk from the neighbours farm, my post was just a jab at truenorth)
