Can you freeze milk if you're not going to be home for a week or more?

yes, I do it all the time if I have more milk than I need.

You can freeze it, but imho you wouldn't want to drink it when you've thawed it out. the texture changes. It's fine for cooking/baking, though.

I've done it, too, and haven't had a problem. It's nice to come home from vacation and not have to go to the grocery store for milk right away.

I have frozen skim milk to take camping, and it tasted just fine (and made an excellent ice pack)
