Wife buys stinky nonfat milk powder. Hate that stuff.
Anyone know of a whole milk powder without stink?

Powdered Whole Milk?

She expects you to actually drink that dreck?
Powdered milk should just be for baking and stuff, not for drinking. 
Of course not for drinking. Do you not read my posts?
All powdered milk stinks. I don't think higher fat content will help. More oxidized fat causes more stench.

I was thinking that.
I was scheming of using it in various concoctions. Wife and maniacal sister use nonfat in coffee and cocoa and such. Smells of acrid vomit in back of the classroom
It's just concentrated milk stench.

I sometimes buy spices from My Spice Sage. I believe they carry a pretty decent dry whole milk powder.
We used to get a couple of types of dry milk powder from Mexico, but they were purchased when one of us was in Mexico. Why mention it then? Because you may find the product in good,well-stocked Latin markets. Here we have numerous such markets, as for your area .... ?
Z Natural Foods in West Palm Beach Florida had a wide assortment of dried milk and cream products when I last visited, and my sister bought some when she was in the area last year.
Good luck, and happy hunting.

As ownership of refrigerators increases, the demand for powdered milk products should decrease, no?
When I was a younger, I drank Carnation by the gallon as a cheap substitute for real milk as part of an amateurish diet plan.
Several friends made fun of that.
Today I make fun of their vehicle maintenance, so we're even.

When I was a kid that is all we had at home. Our Pediatrician Made sure that was all we had. Only school lunches with real milk were great.
Huge Latino population in PNW good idea
Some brands on Amazon but bots reporting a stink
I see Nido on the shelf in the Hispanic food section at the grocery.
Life is to short to drink powder milk
I used to drink powdered milk as a kid, thank you us government.
It’s always stunk and full fat will get oxidation.
Canned/condensed can usually be substituted and is usually slightly less bleh.
It’s funny to think powdered milk was once considered a modern marvel solving a problem for millions without refrigeration

Powdered milk is useful if you need milk solids only - for example when making chocolate. I believe the stench is mostly due to the powder being concentrated. If you reconstitute milk the stench should go away, although milk, at least to me, does not have a pleasant odor to begin with.
Cover it with spice aromas you heathen
Clean raw milk doesn’t stink (at least not like store bought which has a manure, listeria, burnt smell to me)
Modern milk (ultra pasteurized) and dry stinks because the temperatures used burn it slightly.
What’s strange is the strange smell/ aftertaste that tastes like high listeria/manure flavor in commercial milks and sour creams is only a recent development, not sure what they have changed in processing the last 3 years but milk now is very different than it was in the past.
I didn't say it stank. To me, milk has a not very pleasant odor. It does not stink and it doesn't make me gag. Powdered milk is in stench territory. Even fresh, unprocessed milk does not smell great to me.
It might not be the milk. Our bodies can change and affect our sense of taste and smell. A lot of people reported that COVID had that affect. Not saying that's what happened to you, though. My college roommate came back from an army tour of duty in Haiti having lost most of his sense of smell and it persisted for years. Whether that was from the constant stench or a tropical disease he never knew.
