OK, not very exact, but i guess better than what OV said! And sounds

better than what Horizon said too.

 

They supply their milk in recyclable glass bottles too, you put a

deposit and then take back to the store of purchase for credit. I

think we'll be switching over to them for all future milk use.

 

Still grossed out though!
