Over 80 students suffer food poisoning after drinking milk

Blame Humphrey (it's always someone else's fault)

I put the blame fairly and squarely on the shoulders of the government

As far as I remember it was them who introduced all the new restrictions to stop the students from drinking beer

The milk was fresh or so they say - but was it pasteurised?

Exactly! If the milk was spoiled, would 83 kids drink it? I doubt it. Nobody complained either. The question is, then, was it tainted somehow. If it not properly pasteurized then that may answer the problem IMHO.

Milk in Thailand doesn't even taste like milk and is very watery

Me thinks you might be buying the wrong milk. I drink heaps of milk here in LOS & can't fault it.

i think if you buy one of the big brands like Meiji, you are safe enough, and I drink it myself regularly. It definitely doesn't taste as fresh and natural as the milk I drink in New Zealand though.
