I find all brands have their good batches and bad ones. I like pride of farm best and get it at super stop but just had a bad bottle this week. But in general I like that best.

I think everywhere accept for the 3 NPGSs sell it.

I just threw out 3 quarts of Greek Yogurt that had a pink mold growing on them. They were opened and I don't know how long they were in the fridge. I used to eat at least a cupful every day but recently I started having frozen Yorgood instead, so the regular yogurt sat around a while.
However, I thought yogurt was not supposed to spoil too easily, having its own bacteria. In fact, I just looked at a new container and it has a very distant expiration date. But I wonder how long it ought to last once opened.
(I do have a really lousy fridge, which needs its very own thread. No more GE products for me, bli neder!)
(anon bec of all this personal info... you know me, you know about my yogurt habits...)

They had some kind of money disagreement a few years ago. I don't think it was anything bad, I think NPGS wanted to get it for cheaper/sell it for cheaper and Pride of the Farm wouldn't give in.

The expiration dates only apply to company vacuum seals. Once the yogurt is opened they are OK for a week, maybe 10 days max, sometimes less depending on how well they are sealed and if you added anything to them and if you ate straight from the container.
The bacteria in yogurt dies off after about a week and then other bacteria move in.

I had the same thing with golden flow. So I went to a store that is small but has the best turn around and the milk is fine.
I say is the store fridge (even the bigger stores) and the date.
some stores will have a date like jan 07 as the lates date and other store will have jan 11
I say yes to bring the milk back or to mention it to the supermarket because that is the only way they will fix the fridge

It's the one milk company I don't buy. Always spoils within a day or comes spoiled. I'll buy dvash fresh and tasty (I think that's star it's called) sadly I'll just look for the Golden flow and take anything else

Please do start another thread. I need to buy a new fridge and GE is being highly recommended. (French door bottom freezer)
Thanks!

I also only like Pride of the Farm and have pretty much stopped shopping in NPGS because it necessitates a separate trip to another store just for milk.

All these votes for Pride of the Farm are wonderful! But apparently they don't sell that brand in Broolyn (which is where I am from).

Here in Seattle, the only CY milk I can get is Fresh and Tasty. The flavor is fine, but it spoils SO fast! Maybe because of the long shipping distance. An open container is only good for a few days at most. After that, it goes into my cheese making culture.
What is it with CY milk that makes it spoil so quickly, when OU-D milk lasts forever?

Did you figure out what's the story with it? I don't want to stop buying it because the only other plain Greek yogurt has starch in it (go figure). I also don't want to keep buying plasticky batches. Any ideas?
