    Some milks not on the website yet

    Hi - I found a partial bottle recently: Greenhill Dairy, Wilmington, Delaware. Seems that nobody has posted about it yet. I am having trouble finding any online info about this one. I know that there was a drive-in burger joint by that name here in Delaware... I assume it was a dairy farm...

    Real or Repo green Warner's Safe K&L Cure?

    FYI. I sent this eBay seller a polite email explaining the situation as I learned about it here on the forum. She replied with what appears to be a sincere appology, she says that she's going to change the description to clearly state reproduction. Her story is that items were donated to...
