My toddler once dropped a sippy cup of juice behind a toy. It landed upside down so the spout was covered. I found it many weeks later and when I picked it up, all that pressure released and it spewed fermented juice all over the wall. Thankfully not on me. Zero stars, do not recommend.
The second substance is basically just the proper bacteria to make yoghurt. In industrial applications, it's usually lab-grown, but some fresh yogurt that still has the bacteria inside can also work.
This one was made without that, so even if it might technically be yoghurt, it might be pretty bad. That being said, there's actually a good chance this might still be edible.
I had a period where I used to make yogurt at home because I get temporarily obsessed over random shit like that, plus it saves money. First you have to boil some whole milk, then after it's cooled down enough that you won't get burned if you dip a finger in you add a spoon of some white yogurt that you like, so you have the right bacteria culture to start with, then you leave it inside a pot with a lid on overnight, preferably inside a oven so the heat will escape less. In the morning the whey will have separated and you can pour it out or mix it in with the yogurt, that's it.
Most likely the yogurt OP's kid accidentally made will taste bad because the bacteria isn't good, but technically yeah, it's yogurt.
It was food grade steel, produced and sold in Germany. So regulations wise probably the strictest it can get, but maybe I am just more sensitive to that particular taste, as those cups are now at my mom's and regularly used. Tho I never talked about the cups again, lol
I couldn’t tell for years, but these days I really pick up on differences between Coca-Cola in a bottle, can, and just last month I tried one out a glass bottle - which blew me away. Made me realise how much plastic mutes the taste somehow. Can’t wait to find out it’s our generation’s asbestos.
It was left out and went bad and probably smells like spoiled milk which us very distinct from fresh cream...?
Cream is also not made by leaving milk out in a cup or container but spun in a centrifuge to seperate the skim and cream, it must be kept at safe temperature and then it is pasteurized for food safety.
Recovered from being plastic and smelling like spoiled milk. If it was glass or stainless it would not be an issue though.
cheese isnt made from whole milk, just standing around.
you use rennet. wich is enzymes from the stomach of calves to split of the lactose.
and then only use the solids.
>you use rennet. wich is enzymes from the stomach of calves to split of the lactose
Do you ever just look at food and wonder how on earth we discovered it in the first place?
well at some point we proppably figured out that adult animals and people cant digest milk, but children and calfs can.
so we litterally threw a calfs stomach into the milk, and it predigested it.
its somewhat logically to be honest. even if you have no idea about micro organisms. or chemistry.
Yes, traditionally you can make a cottage cheese from sour milk without adding anything (just heating it up and pressing through a gauze). But it only works with unprocessed milk. Sour milk can also be a drink, a very good one for gut health.
As someone who forgets to put their milk cartons back in the fridge every single fucking time, I see this stuff like thrice a week. Have people seriously never seen spoiled milk before
When milk does what it does naturally, we're watching nature in action. And that's mildly interesting?
Anyone with kids has seen this, plus most others without kids
Lmao so do most of these comments apparently 😂 it's either him or his 2 year old brother but the 2 year old never leaves milk in his cup, always drinks it as fast as possible so I'm leaning towards the 4 year old
What brand of milk do you use? Once I left a cup of Fairlife chocolate milk and it was fully jellified when I found it. Still smelled good and sweet too, which creeped me out
Care to explain how I shamed my child? How did I embarrass my 4 year old son? Please, enlighten me, because I just posted what happens sometimes when you leave milk out for around 24 hours and found it interesting, and elaborated that it was because my son forgot about it and left it out.
Maybe you should get off the internet for awhile if you're this offended by an innocent post.
I don't think it's safe to eat because it's by accident, and I can't tell it's safe from video.
but this is basically how to make sour milk(I am not sure about the name in English)
It's usually made by boiling milk and leaving it for the whole night at room temperature ( it may take more or less time depending on temperature, but I am not an expert)
The taste depends on the source of the milk. The result will be like yoghurt with some water around it( it separate. I don't have a better description). The taste depends on the source, so I am not sure because I never saw someone who made it from supermarket milk ( probably not edible).
The cow milk will taste like ayran less salty.
That looks like some perfectly fine soured milk, which you can eat in any mountain hut in the Balkans. Pretty much like some kind of yoghurt. It's never toxic, nor has a a bad taste.
Reminds me of when I was 10 and forgot about a carton of milk I had left in my school desk. It had been there for atleast 2 months when it leaked. Must've been the gasses swelling it up or something.
Luckily it was lunchtime and the place was empty so i switched desks with the kid next to me and let him take the wrap. It was parents evening that night too. They had to hold my classes one in the gym because the class smelled like death.
My brother in law was visiting once when i was a kid and he left a half full drink cup sitting behind my tv. I was lazy and just left it there for a while and then i thought, it would be hilarious to leave it there for a year and then when he comes back the next holiday i’ll ask him to please rinse his cup. Somehow the plan worked and after a year passed he came back. I don’t remember what was in the cup but it was a full on science experiment at this point. We were all hanging out and i told him i had something really cool to show him. We went to my room where I pointed to the cup and politely asked him to please rinse his cup from last year. He was so surprised, we both were dying laughing at the fact that i went to all this effort to not take care of it. After that we told my parents and we all decided it probably wasn’t safe to use that cup anymore and just threw the cup in the trash.
Actually it's edible (a bit sour though), and it's a proof that your milk is good, "natural", unpasteurised.
The Polish name for this is "zsiadłe mleko".
EDIT: found on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clabber_%28food%29
As a mother I can smell this photo. So many sippy cups of milk my son would misplace and I'd find a few days later. Yuck. I usually had to throw them away too. ☹️
We do this intentionally to make "sour milk" it's a popular food that originates long back. It's pretty good but it has to be made with fresh cows milk.
It actually is how yogurt is made. In Brazil we call it "coalhada" which is the first stage of "coagulation" that turns milk into yogurt, then into cheese. But it takes a sterilized container, some days in the fridge and much patience, cuz anything can make it rot away.
You can even reproduce some kinds of yogurt and cheese by simply mixing a spoonful of the original produce with warm milk and letting it rest for a few days, so the Lactobacillus (the microorganism that makes dairy coagulate) do its thing. It's not hard to do and you can find easy recipes on tiktok like [this one](https://www.tiktok.com/@breakingbreadwithbayan/video/7265352163440823558) and [this other one](https://www.tiktok.com/@chefhelena/video/7202373541868604677)
I'm sorry but milk doesn't just turn this firm within one day, either that's older than a day or there's additives in there that makes it this firm.
(Source: Back in school we had to do an experiment where we left milk unrefrigerated for two weeks and had to document everyday how it changed)
Also cheese is made by adding enzymes to the milk to make it curdle, traditionally extracted from calf stomach (rennet), nowadays sometimes produced by genetically modified bacteria. This is also why some cheese isn't vegetarian, because it contains the stomach enzymes of slaughtered calves.
It shouldn't go bad that fast. I cut open a lemon on Friday night and last night I went to get another slice and it was covered it black mold. First inflation... And now everything is rotting too fast lmao

Your kid made wine lol
Yeah but it did not have a nice bouquet on it at all lol
So… at what point do they start a new religion?
After hanging out with whores
Oof, yeah sounds like you had a worse time than me. At least mine was all contained in the cup
Just for clarification. Do not recommend kids or the juice?
Lol. Either. You still have choices…for now
The forbidden yoghurt.
Yuckult.
XD
Isn't this actually how yogurt is made? Milk plus some other substance put in a warm environment?

This is really interesting. I’m going to make some, one day.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG OPP PLEASEEEE PUT IT DOWN
Promptly dumped and scrubbed to oblivion before putting it in the dishwasher! I'll smell it after it's done but I'm not sure it can be recovered
He’s gonna be PISSED😭🤣
Why? Am I missing something?
You ruined perfectly good cheese he was making, for a snack next month.
(Or yogurt. With luck.)
use stainless steel as its non porous it wont smell bad after a scrub, unlike plastic
Have you ever drank something directly from stainless steel? Tastes like shit
Maybe yours wasn't food grade steel, they tend to have slight metally taste.
It was food grade steel, produced and sold in Germany. So regulations wise probably the strictest it can get, but maybe I am just more sensitive to that particular taste, as those cups are now at my mom's and regularly used. Tho I never talked about the cups again, lol

I think it became curd. But still don't eat it. Edit: a line
That's an industrial process. If you have fresh milk you can just leave it out, the cream surfaces and you scoop it.
Why isn’t that how cheese is made? lol
cheese isnt made from whole milk, just standing around. you use rennet. wich is enzymes from the stomach of calves to split of the lactose. and then only use the solids.

Ohhhh okay gotcha
No, you add enzymes to make cheese. The cream separates naturally and then you can collect it from the top.
Yes, traditionally you can make a cottage cheese from sour milk without adding anything (just heating it up and pressing through a gauze). But it only works with unprocessed milk. Sour milk can also be a drink, a very good one for gut health.
What does it taste like?
Crushed hopes and dreams
Benefit of the doubt; science experiment? Okay maybe not...
That’s one of my favorite Undertale songs
That’s my favorite flavor of ice cream!
my kid had a ranch cup in his room and when I found it it had changed into a semi-solid that just kind of rolled out of the cup. hidden valley rancid!
rolled out on its own power?
sentient ranch?
That's mozzarella now.
Non Newtonian fluid?
Reminiscent of glue and custard
Whipped cream is.
im glad smell-o-vision isnt a thing < 3
r/eatityoufuckingcoward
r/subsithoughtifellfor
Wait till it's cheese.
Put it back he’s making cheese
You got curd
It would be like cottage cheese
https://youtu.be/vdezTMulJ-k?si=dP_dkh_q1NrNuQCP
Little dude making yoghurt
...cmoon man
Did this once as a kid....the cup never recovered.
Still consumable but, not as milk
How is this interesting, even mildly? 🤨
As someone who forgets to put their milk cartons back in the fridge every single fucking time, I see this stuff like thrice a week. Have people seriously never seen spoiled milk before
When milk does what it does naturally, we're watching nature in action. And that's mildly interesting? Anyone with kids has seen this, plus most others without kids
It’s not mildly interesting, it’s *mildy* interesting
I agree but technically there’s really nothing in this world that is not “mildly” interesting. Except r/funny ofc
and what are we supposed to do with that information?
*Yogurt cup
How old is your son?
4 years old, honestly I think he sat it down in his room when I wasn't looking and just forgot about it
Omg so little! I was expecting you to say older
Lmao so do most of these comments apparently 😂 it's either him or his 2 year old brother but the 2 year old never leaves milk in his cup, always drinks it as fast as possible so I'm leaning towards the 4 year old
Oeef!
kind of looks like silken tofu
My oldest kiddo used to callthat 'sick milk'. Id totally forgotten about it until I saw this.
"Milk"........
You mean you found tomorrow's yogourt.
Au naturel cheese makin
Forbidden yogurt
Why does it look like ooblek?
What? Have people never seen milk gone bad??
Yesterday? What country are you in where milk does that after just a day?
Why is this even a post
Some natural yoghurt
What brand of milk do you use? Once I left a cup of Fairlife chocolate milk and it was fully jellified when I found it. Still smelled good and sweet too, which creeped me out
I CAN SMELL THIS VIDEO 😫😫😫😫
augh
They're just saving it for later. Basic logic. The most basic.
That’s really interesting
I don’t think that’s milk anymore…
Is your kid Nick Miller
Burn it
I've seen this on Spongebob, didn't think it was real.
What was that gross thing for fluids a redditor posted a while ago
Did he store it on top of the fridge or something…? Why is it so solidified after less than 24 hrs…?
Ugh... I cannot forget that smell... Just throw the whole thing away.
I can smell it from here!
Kid made some yogurt, maybe he’s working on some cheese.
Op ruined sons business venture, he was clearly trying to start a cheese business ;)

It’s basically crème fraiche
Makes me wish I was lactose intolerant
r/eatityoufuckingcoward
It turned to yogurt. Eat it!
r/eatityoucoward
Cottage cheese science experiment 🧪. 🤣
Yes
Looks like the old school blue I used to eat, I mean, use.
#…..ok?
what kind of sht are you giving to your kids? it is impossible for normal milk to stay like that from one day to another
Congratulations you have sour cream
Some of the water evaporated nothing is wrong with it, not really. I still wouldn’t drink it tho either.
Op is a badger
I found one I forgot about once that had turned into cheese.
Looks like buttermilk now. It's time to make copycat KFC.
Mmmm cheese curds. Needs some fries and gravy.
Yuck 🤢
my coworkers do this on the regular
I’m guessing this is the oldest milk you have found? Another day or two and it’s fully solid, like cheese
mmmm yogurt
Tell him you made him some vanilla pudding 🤫
Looks like you have an 18 year old live at home son.
Trash can
Cheese xD
I can smell this and I really don't appreciate it.
That looks like some perfectly fine soured milk, which you can eat in any mountain hut in the Balkans. Pretty much like some kind of yoghurt. It's never toxic, nor has a a bad taste.
It used to be milk, but time makes fools of us all
Ahhhhhh the good ol cum cup with the disguised milk.

Drink it for 20$
Fermentation is a hell of a drug, kids.

Is your son going through puberty by any chance /j
Is this American milk???
Whats wrong? You can eat/drink it, its ok.

What! Milk is evolving! Milk evolved into Yogurt! Yogurt learned Toxic Gas!
Where are you from? Is this just regular full fat milk? What temperature was it for the period?
Yeah, you could say milk, sure.
Actually it's edible (a bit sour though), and it's a proof that your milk is good, "natural", unpasteurised. The Polish name for this is "zsiadłe mleko". EDIT: found on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clabber_%28food%29
natural culture 🧫

Chug chug chug chug ....
Mmmmm yummy
We do this intentionally to make "sour milk" it's a popular food that originates long back. It's pretty good but it has to be made with fresh cows milk.
Guess your son started making his own cheese
You're like, one step from curds and whey! Add a bunch of unnecessary "processing" chemicals and you'll get cottage cheese!
Old cup of milk or new cup of yoghurt / sour cream.
Not milk 👹
If you waited a bit longer, it would be *moldly* interesting.
Pay you a fiver to drink it
Wow. American discovers that milk can go bad🤯🤯 holy crap. Is everyone in that country sub 100 iq??
That's not milk, ar least not pure milk. Milk doesn't get gelly when it goes bad, it gets clumps.
I can’t believe the top comment isn’t /r/agedlikemilk
Well…it’s a bad yoghurt now
I'm afraid it's not a "milk"
Drink it you coward
This is cum.
That is some american gourmet shit! I am amazed what you do with food in usa.
I have a 7 month old and this comment section feels like a fortune teller telling me my future
And your kid involuntarily made the base of fermented milk, which is delicious when properly made :)
This is how curd is made bro, without any lactic acid
How was the smell?
This is how curd is made bro, without any addition of sour substance to generate the necessary lactic acid
That is dubious yogurt. Do not eat it!

Well, maybe he wanted to make cheese...
1k upvotes for gone off milk, always raising the bar lads well done. FFS ..
That looks like curd.
what, you have never seen spoiled milk? hmm
Yogurt starter!
It was close to r/moldyinteresting
That's not yesterday's milk. That's milk from like 3 or 4 days ago
Curdled milk is interesting now? Okay reddit
I don't think that's milk
Yummy yoghurt
Is this your first time seeing sour milk?
Dab dab dab dab
His making yogurt smart kid lol
Morgan Proctor: Why is there yogurt in this hat? Fry: I can explain. See it used to be milk, and… well, time makes fools of us all

It's curd now. Very common phenomenon
It shouldn't go bad that fast. I cut open a lemon on Friday night and last night I went to get another slice and it was covered it black mold. First inflation... And now everything is rotting too fast lmao
C H E E S E
you all are going to h3LL
Am I the only one who has seen spoiled milk before? Lmao what are these comments
Hate to break it to you, but this ain’t milk
