My Review - Let me start by saying that I really like Trader Joe’s and I really like non-homogenized milks. However, I do not like Trader Joe’s non-homogenized milk, Trader Joe’s 2% Cream Top Reduced Fat Organic Milk – Non Homogenized. First off, the cream on the top was not a nice cream that could actually be shaken back into the milk. It was instead a thick yogurt-like mat at the top that I actually had to poke with my finger before any milk would pour out! Without being able to mix the cream back in the milk tasted more like a non-fat that a creamy 2%. Bummer, I really wanted to like this organic milk.

Odd that you don’t like this but you like the Straus, I guess the glass bottle makes all the difference. Yes Straus supplies this cream top milk to Trader Joe’s.
I will have to try this again. The time I purchased it the cream was so clumpy that it could not be mixed back into the milk. Maybe the glass jar is the difference. Thanks for your input!
I have to agree with you I tried Trader Joe’s Organic milk for the first time this last week. When I opened the container I could not even pour the milk from the container. Once I read the label to make sure to shake well, which I then did it still was quite chunkey. I did enjoy the taste once I was able to completely mix the cream and liquid.
Do you also have or recomend a website that reviews Organic Eggs and Butter.
Unfortunately I don’t. I do use organic eggs from Trader Joe’s and I like them really well. Please let me know if you come across any that you like.
Thanks!
Thanks for you comments! I am glad to know that this has happened to someone else. Make sure you try the Straus, it is amazing for a cream on top milk!
