As a guess I would say it may be yogurt milk. I don't think a Thai would like buttermilk at all. Pete

In the UK I used to like to eat cereal with Skimmed UHT milk, is it available here? The stuff with the long expiry date, usually in cartons rather than plastic bottles.

I speak very little Thai and read not one word yet somehow I always manage to come away from a 7/11, Tesco or Big C etc with exactly the type of milk I require.

There is absolutely no need to confuse this thread by introducing Yogurt Milks. If anyone wants a bottle of fresh milk and walks out with Buttermilk or Yogurt milk you need to be recipient of a Darwin award :banghead:

Whatever dude...the thread actually morphed when one poster claimed that there was only full fat milk on offer at 7/11's and then confusion as to what colour caps identify a certain type of milk.

One of the contenders for silliest thread in the Forum Oscars :banghead: :banghead:

I find it amusing how aggravated people are getting over this topic. I have personally never found a bottle of milk that states, in English, what type it is. Maybe I just gave up after the first few failed attempts.

I also have never been disappointed with a bottle I've had. I'll check the label on the next orange-top Dutch Mill I get, anyway, just to see if the details actually are there :)
