We don't just buy dry milk to store, we drink it. This milk tastes good, mixes up well, though a little frothy, and we are quite pleased with it. Can't remember exactly how long it took to arrive, but considering it came clear across the country to us we were happy with the shipping time. Being as it was the best deal we were able to find on dry milk, we were a tad worried that there might be quality issues, but we were very pleasantly surprised to find it to be an excellent product, packaged well, and it arrived in good shape after it's very long trip to us.
