Oh, yes!

 

[zinniabooklover]

And also this.

I cannot believe you guys don’t have filmjölk. It’s what I eat everyday, many days the only thing I eat. Growing up, I usually had two packages (2 litres) a day.

We have Russian architecture on ours!

“Din ryska filkultur”!

Love it!

“Tart”?

yes, that's the word we'd use in the UK. Granny Smith's apples. Rhubarb. Gooseberries.

Kefir!

I’m big on tarty things.

And you wouldn't say that in the UK. Not unless you wanted someone to take the p!ss out of you or to be challenged by a passing feminist!

 

[bluemoon7]

Our old packaging was even better.

same

“Tarty toppings” is poetic.

Sorry!

How would you say it, please?

 

[zinniabooklover]

Sorry!

You would just list the individual foods! People mostly use the word 'sour' nowadays which I think is different than 'tart' but, like I said, using the word 'tart' can get you in hot water.

Am I mixing my metaphors?

Try saying that in a pub in Newcastle, you'll definitely be in trouble. And that's just the women, lol.

Molke?

 

[Agonum]

Dickmilch?
Joghurt?
Kefir?
Quark?
Skyr?

Definitely not Joghurt, that is its own thing. Same with Quark. Kefir is rather similar, though. We even call it “Russian filmjölk.”

Wikipedia says you Germans call it Filmjölk or Schwedenmilch!

So it’s a dangerous word no matter how you use it? Or is it specifically when used as an adjective?

nein, du alter Schwede!

Molke?

Looks like water on the package?

[Agonum]

Als Filmjölk (schwedisch), auch als Schwedenmilch bekannt, wird eine vor allem in Skandinavien beliebte Form sämiger, mild schmeckender Dickmilch (Sauermilch) bezeichnet. Sie ist dem Joghurt ähnlich, wird jedoch unter Verwendung anderer Bakterienkulturen und bei niedriger Temperatur hergestellt.

Sooo wikipedia tells me

"Bei der in Deutschland verkauften „Schwedenmilch“ handelt es sich oft um flüssig gerührte Dickmilch."

Schwedenmilch is a more liquid Dickmilch I am confused now

"Molke ist die wässrige grünlich-gelbe Restflüssigkeit, die bei der Käseherstellung entsteht. Sie ist der flüssige Teil, der nach der Gerinnung der Milch zu Käse oder Quark abgesondert werden kann."

... is the watery greenish-yellow residual liquid that is produced during cheese making. It is the liquid part that can be secreted into cheese or quark after the milk has coagulated.

Sounds gross, but we drink it flavoured

I wonder how “Dickmilch” would go home in a pub in Newcastle?

Yes, it does sound gross indeed! What is it you are describing here?

Imagine going there and ask a tart if she wants some Dickmilch
