Do your kids like milk?

I found this great product last night. No, I don't sell them just sharing. LOL But Kristen has never liked plain milk, some chocolate but not alot. Well last night at the fireworks the milk booth at this product called Sipahh milk straws. They are hollow straws with little beads of flavour inside and as you suck the milk through the straw it picks up the flavour. They are only 10 cal. so not adding too much sugar to the mix but she had 2 milks which is more than she's had in the last 3 weeks. She had chocolate with chocolate milk (super charged chocolate), then she had caramel with plain milk. Her friend had cookies and cream with plain milk. They also had strawberry and vanilla.


They are pretty new here so I'm not sure where we'll find them. Hopefully most of the big supermarkets will carry them. Then she can get plain milk at school (she gets sick of chocolate milk all the time) and give her some variety. I think they are Australian and it said they do have them in the US. There is also banana, chocolate mint and green apple floating around somewhere. Green apple milk to me sounds gross but Kristen thought it sounded great. LOL


So if your kids are so-so on milk this might be the way to get them to drink more. The straw is good for about a cup of milk, the small individual cartons.

They also have cereal straws now that you can suck the milk through & flavor it like the cereal. Froot Loops & Cocoa Krispies.








But Aly LOVES milk & always has! I hate milk and had to force myself to drink it when pregnant.

I can NOT drink milk. I know its good for you but I just start gagging. Anything milk like. I can't drink coffee with milk in it, cappucinos, milkshakes, anything milky and liquidy I can't stand. Even hearing Kristen stir her ice-cream until its liquidy, the sound

Rachel drank rice milk for years and got used to the sweet taste of it. Now she will only drink regular milk if it has chocolate has in it, but chocolate milk is not always available. The straws would be a great portable way to flavour her milk.

Someone said they saw them in Shoppers somewhere in Ontario so they might have them near you. I am going to start looking for them.

I've never seen these where I live. My kids are ok with milk on cereal, and they drink it with dinner, because I only serve milk with dinner! :)

I'm one of those weirdos that don't believe cow's milk is really all that healthy for humans.
