I don't buy organic milk so I don't know what the price is on that.

Almond/coconut milks are running about $3.50 per 1/2 gallon.

Soy and Rice Milk are available at costco for $14 for 12 cartons.

(All prices are approximates and subject to change. Also this is for the Anchorage Area.)

That's expensive but not as bad as I thought.

Wow, I guess a gallon would cost somewhere in the $10-12 range in your area. I guess most of it goes for transportation.

Milk's $3.40 here in Illinois. Fairbanks isn't sounding so expensive after all

Dak, here's another funny thing to consider: Dandelions are edible (and yummy!). People used to eat them all the time, but now they're yard pests instead of salad greens.

Darn close to $20. bux a gallon in those smaller villages.

I've used only used one source for milk for more than 30 years,

Powered milk. it is much healthier and super rich in Lecithin.

Everyone always wondered how come ? Dick Clark & Pat Boone stayed so young looking for such an extended period of time. They each said the same thing. Powered milk!!

When my mother was in her young sixties, people thought she was about 35-ish!! It does great things !!

I go through about 2 gallons a week here in the house with just the oldest boy and myself here. Can't eat Oreos without milk.
