Most people who drink spoiled milk will immediately identify the "off" taste and spit out the milk. But young children who may not know better may drink the milk. If ingested, spoiled milk will affect a child as any other food poisoning. That is, the child will have stomach pains and likely have diarrhea and vomit to remove the poisoned food. Be vigilant also of any molds that appear on milk. Pasteurization has largely removed these from the food supply, but they can still appear in unpasteurized milk. Molds may appear brown, green, pink or white. If any of these colors appear and the milk smells sour, do not ingest it as you normally would.
