It isn't "really cold" in Maine until the ocean freezes solid enough to drive on it either.

Here in Delaware, at the slightest hint of snow, the smallest dusting, the stores become crammed full of people. Those people aren't there for canned goods, or flashlight batteries, or things that might actually come in useful if something were really happening.

Those people are buying bread and milk.

Seriously.

Bread and milk. WTF, Delaware?

That happens here in MAssachusetts as well. You'd think that these people's cupboards and fridges were completely void of anything if they hear of a flake of snow falling. It's such a strange behavior.

I could understand if it were canned goods, dried stuff, or anything that would keep if power went out/they were snowed in. I know it's just a dusting, but I can appreciate them being prepared. Bread and milk though?

They're just weird. :)

Everybody wants French Toast when it snows!

Ah, never thought of it that way. :-D

I keep milk in all three forms of "storage" around because I only cook with it. I don't drink it.

dried, canned, and Permalat.

What's Permalat? I know the other two.

Think milk-in-a-box.

It can be used just like fresh milk, but it is treated and packed in special boxes for longer-term storage.

It doesn't taste tinny like evaporated or condensed milk.

Ah, I know now. Never used it, but I can see the draw to it.
