Notes (2026): <\/strong><\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> In the UK (both in 2016 and 2026) milk bottles are colour coded by label and bottle top, with red indicating skimmed milk, green indicating semi skimmed milk, and blue indicating full fat milk.<\/em>
\n2.<\/strong> Morrisons have undergone several rebrands since 2016 (plus been sold to a new owner) and no longer use the single big M logo in use on both this bottle and the shampoo bottle included elsewhere in this collection [#003<\/a>].<\/em>
\n3.<\/strong> Going by the use by date, it appears I must have disregarded one of the usage instructions and consumed at least some of this after the published expiry date.<\/em><\/p>\n
