If you can't use it up by the exp. date...you can re-radiate it to it's original freshness by microwaving it to a low boil and returning it to the refrigerator after it cools. The process is similar to pasturizing and kills any bacteria. It is important to do it in glass containers, possibly in batches.

yea you can make pudding (a lot of it) from the milk, certainly you can drink some of it. What you can't use you can freeze. Do it in small quantities so you don't have to thaw the whole thing. You don't saw what kind of milk but if its whole milk (3.5% fat) you may break the emulsion when you freeze so the milk will look funny but it will still be safe. Don't worry.
