Spar
Bad Tasting Milk with Terrible After Taste

On Friday 7 June 2013 at about 4.30 I bought a 2litre SPAR Full Cream Milk at the Spar in Ben Swart street. The milk was on a special, and the expiry date is only 23 June. On Sunday morning we opened the milk for the first time and ever since then our coffee and any other hot drinks started tasting off and had a very distinguished after taste (almost of iron/rubber). I couldn't understand what was going on, and eventually thought it was a problem with our water. Tonight (Monday 10 June) we went to buy bottled water at the local shop, and used that to make coffee with. This made no difference at all, and that is when we realized it couldn't be the water. We then did our own experiment where we first tasted plain boiled water, then added sugar, and then added coffee and finally the milk. As soon as we added the milk, we could immediately taste the terrible after-taste. I cannot believe that Spar would sell a product that is either contaminated, or off! Best of all is that I seem to have lost the proof of purchase (till slip). However I am sure they can trace me on the CCTV cameras in the store. I would appreciate feedback on this matter and some compensation. I do have the milk still as proof.
