Curdled Milk?
Logged out for privacy. How long does it take milk to curdle?
A client brought cups of milk today in the diaper bag. DCM yelled out the window as she pulled away "the kids brought their drinks today" Sure enough DCKs were digging in the bag wanting their milk. The sippy cups felt cold but were the kind you can't see through due to graphics. I opened one up just to check. It was milk filled to the top and looked fresh and was cold so I gave the kids the cups with breakfast. Normally I do not allow anything from home but DCM was already gone and why waste milk.
After breakfast I open the cups to rinse them. DCK1 had iced tea not milk like the sibling!!! I dump it and open DCK2 which was the milk I saw but this time I noticed it smelled bad. I dump the milk and feel it is cold but then notice the little catch is whats stinking. It is packed with curdled milk!!! I looked at DCK1 also and his catch also had curdled milk! WTH??? Now while I was looking at the catch the cups are filling up with soapy water. I let them sit a minute and clean the catch with a pipe cleaner it's so bad!! I don't even know how they were gettting drinks through that GAG!!
Now I am using my sprayer to blast out the cups until the hot soapy water clears. I dump the water out and OMG there is curdled milk in the 1 cup so bad, so thick it looks like pie crust!!! I gag and about throw up thinking the poor child just drank fresh milk out of this!! That hard sprayer didn't even chip it away, or maybe it did GAG!! I tried to clean it out with a sponge and it was so bad it wouldn't all come out. My sponge was then covered in thick curdled milk pieces! I threw it away and had to get a bottle brush and scrub it over and over. The other cup had a film on the bottom too but nothing like the pie crust looking one. It took me about 10 minutes to get these 2 cups scrubbed clean and picked out of the cup lid and catches.
I mention there was curdeled milk through the cups to DCM and she says she didn't see curdled milk this moring when she rinsed it to put fresh milk in. I said the catch was literally packed which is probably why the kids didn't drink much, they couldn't get the fresh drink through the curd!! She just shrugged her shoulders saying she rinsed it before she poured fresh milk. I realised it was going to be another battle of her lie/my imagination so I dropped it but this is not the first time that happened. This happened a while ago but I had forgotten about it otherwise I would have inspected the cups more closely. Now I feel horrible the kids drank that even if it was fresh it sat in a crust of rotten milk!! Oh and the tea as well!!
Those cups had to be sitting with rotten milk in them for days! I have gone to bed and forgotten a glass of milk on the dining room table and it just left a small ring around the top edge the next day. So being this cup had a thick crust like layer how long do you think it really sat? The kids seemed ok they played like normal. Do you think they will get sick from this?
