Turning one gallon of milk into two!

In search of finding ways to further decrease our spending at the grocery store, I came across this little trick. Being that I'm not a big milk drinker and only use it on cereal and in recipes, I was willing to give it a try and potentially ruin a perfectly good gallon of milk. I was shocked by the results and can honestly say that I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between reduced fat milk and this stuff. Please keep in mind that since this involves watering down the milk, it will decrease the nutrients and calories per serving, making it a poor beverage choice for children. 

You'll want to start with a gallon of WHOLE milk and an empty milk container. 



Divide the milk among the two containers. No need to be completely accurate. Just use your eyes to determine whether or not they're equal. 



Add one teaspoon of sugar and one half teaspoon of salt to EACH container. Top off both containers with cold water, replace caps and shake.



Now, sit back and enjoy the fact that you have just created a second gallon of milk for free. Take that, increasing milk prices!
