Crying over spilled milk...
Dairy farmers are crying over spilled milk... Restaurants, schools and businesses are shuttered. Now there's a huge surplus of milk and cheese products. One dairy that produces 30,000 gallons of milk dairy is forced to dump nearly half of that because the food-service industry no longer has a demand.Something must be done... but what?
These are products that normally would be consumed by people going out. The people haven't disappeared... they're hunkered gown on a stay-home order. Same people.
Maybe it's my 'cheesy-request' but if people started buying more milk from grocers and the demand went up, dairy farmers could kick-in and supply to a different source. Even if they were to lower their cost to the it wouldn't the total loss they are having now.
Some stores have a shortage of dairy products... supply and demand. Find another source,
That's my opinion. Yours may differ...

Canned milk, evaporated milk, powdered milk, etc.
How about donating some of it to the Salvation Army, soup kitchens, and other charities.
