Granny's gone and done it again

When I make butter from cream, the butterfat separates out and what's left can be called buttermilk, but it is really a sweet skim milk. It's delicious.

The thick, salty stuff you buy at the store called buttermilk is "cultured" buttermilk. I sometimes make it at home by putting a quarter cup of it in a quart jar, filling the jar with milk, and putting it in the oven overnight with the light on. It doesn't have time to ROT. It develops, the culture grows and gives it its flavor.
 
Does that mean I like rotted milk products?
You might but I don't. It just looks rotted in the containers to me. I've tried to eat it in my youth but never could get it down. I do like real cheese and lots of different kinds too.
