So when I was at the grocery store on Sunday, I decided to buy some buttermilk. Buttermilk sounds like a delicious drink - like eggnog! - so I wanted to try it.

But since Sunday, I keep opening up the fridge and looking at it with apprehension, and then closing the fridge. Is buttermilk something one drinks while they are just chilling, sans food, reading a Tamora Pierce novel like I will be? Or is it disgusting and meant only for cooking, like vanilla extract?


ETA: Bleechhhhhh! Good thing the carton comes with a recipe for buttermilk pancakes on the back.

It's slightly sour, kind of like drinking unflavored yogurt. I've never cared for the flavor, though there are people out there who drink it.

I think buttermilk can be a chillaxing whenever beverage... at least, that is how it is consumed in my house (although I myself fall under the "urgh, disgusting" camp, but that's mostly because I don't really like regular milk, either. To me buttermilk is, like... yogurt-y milk, sort of? I don't know if that is at all a helpful and/or appealing description, ha).

Buttermilk is an awesomely delicious drink and you should go and drink a huge glass of it as fast as you can. In fact, I predict you will love it so much that you should video yourself drinking it and post it on the Internet so we can see your smiling, happyface reaction.

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh My dad likes it, but I have never been able to bring myself to try it. Maybe I will now.

I've only used it for cooking, but it's great for pancakes!

I've used it mostly in baking, breading chicken, and pancakes. I've never actually tried to drink the stuff. :)

But where's the YouTube video?!?!

Oh, no! I wish I could have warned you. It is definitely NOT like eggnog, though it does make delicious pancakes, biscuits, and mashed potatoes!
