Aldi please bring back organic milk

I was very disappointed the other day when doing at Aldi and noticing the 1L organic milk was no longer being sold and a new one in a plastic bottle was available.

I would stock up and leave them in the fridge. Please bring back the old milk!  Or at least tell me who else had the same :P.

We're very wussy in our coffee drinking habits and tend to like: Instant = Nescafe Gold Blend or Moccona Vanilla Ground Coffee = Illy Medium Roast or Gloria Jeans flavoured coffee (Vanilla or Hazelnut) We have our coffees with milk so YMMV.  When I'm out I tend to go for a Soy Mocha... So... the flavours we like the best are: Perugia (strength 5) - smooth with no bitter aftertaste Tauro (strength 5) - another smooth one Milano (strength 10) -- very smooth and not as strong as the number seems to ...
