Any Welsh people here...do you like the drink we Welsh call "Glasdwr Llaeth"?

Question

By Llaeth here I mean the N Wales meaning..buttermilk
(milk = llefrith).
My father used to drink it, buttermilk with some warm water added..UGH..I thought it was revolting.I haven't heard anyone mention it in years.
He also used to eat "Bara llaeth"..bread in buttermilk but I would only eat "Bara llefrith"..bread in (warm) milk..yummy!!
What has happened to these old dishes..cheap wholesome foods.

Seren..Ti'n llygad dy le..mi oedd hi'n anodd yma yn y 50au a'r 60au..ond 'roeddem yn hapus serch hynny.

Caicos Turkey..Dwi'n cofio rwan..mi oedd yna rhyw wawr o las ynddo. Am flas y ddau..pawb at y peth y bo ,mae'n siwr.
Gan mai allan o lefrith buwch y gwnaed llaeth enwyn..mae'n debyg na allai pobl sydd efo alergedd at lefrith gwartheg ei yfed.

Answer 1

I think that "Glasdwr Llaeth" is a much better name for it, as it actually does look slightly blue in sheen. It was hard to get where I lived (something which old people spoke of with hiraeth in their hearts and palates) and my first contacts with it were not too favourable, but I learned to like it in Germany. I still like it, but as everybody around me shares your disgust for it, I don't tend to buy it. What I would like to find out is whether it presents a suitable alternative for people who are allergic to cow's milk, inasmuch as just about everything has been removed from it. If so, it could enjoy a revival.
How could anyone like drinking warm milk? Achaf fi!

Answer 2

yma, cymraes ydw i.
never heard of the buttermilk drink here in the south and i`ve never tried bread in milk but i suppose it was eaten in the past when times were hard, I suppose needs must back then.

Answer 3

I'll answer your first question for you - no there aren't any welsh people here.
