We had powdered milk when I was a kid. When things were good mom would mix it 1/2 & 1/2 with real milk.
That house was pretty bad. Our well water was contaminated with sulfur but we drank it anyway. Whenever someone would come over they would bring their own water. This was many years before the bottled water craze. Makes me wonder what side effects that had on me. *twitch*
Us kids would eat dogfood sometimes. The yummy hard crunchy kind. We didn't need to (always had food) we just did it because we liked the taste. lol
