Milk becomes stale primarily due to the growth of bacteria and the breakdown of its components. When milk is exposed to air, light, or improper storage temperatures, bacteria can multiply, leading to off-flavors and spoilage. Additionally, enzymes present in milk can cause it to sour and develop a rancid taste. Proper refrigeration and airtight storage can help prolong milk's freshness.

No. Expiry dates are legal and they are needed.
