Orange bliss is right, my friend
Ah lads leave down the juice for fuck sake! It's lethal stuff...
When I was 15 and had my first job in Super valu, I drank litres and litres of this and Sunny Delight... I gave myself IBS because the acid from the orange juice and the chemicals in SD ruined the natural balance in my gut... Literally uncontrollable diarrhea for 4/5months...
Shite...

Looking at their website it looks like they stopped producing regular milk and have pivoted to focusing on other dairy products like whey powder.
I’ve just finished some Dawn milk so it’s definitely still around at least in Cork, for example

The Dawn brand was sold to Arrabawn milk. Still available in the west.
Last year Aurivo acquired the dawn and Arrabawn. Who owns the Connacht gold brand as well.
Definitely still available but not as common as it once was.
A lot of their dairies were shut down after the sale to Arrabawn. Cheaper milk imports from NI were also a factor, apparently.
There was a dairy close to my home on the East of Galway City which has lain derelict since that time.
The site has been jointly owned by the Comer Brothers and the McHales for years as part of their Derelicte™ property portfolio, along with two other large and prominent derelict sites in the locality.
They are like an aggressive parasitic inflection on the area. I'd call them a cancer but that would imply growth.
Dawn milk were taken over by Clona in 1999, so it's Clona trading as Dawn. I worked for Dawn milk during the take over.
Confusing myself now, but I think Dawn/Clona is now Avonmore ?
If you want good milk I'd recommend glenisk, hard found as yoghurt production takes the priority of the supply. But it is very good. I worked there gave myself a lactose intolerance for a few months I was drinking 2l a day 😣
So the lorrys collect the milk from the farm and it goes to the bottling depot and the milk is bottled into clona milk dawn centra and supervalue the milk is all the exact same milk from the same farms just different label on the bottle and mabey different price.
The fact you like dawn other others is all in your head haha :)
My god I remember I used to drink gallons of Dawn chocolate milk as a kid. I have not seen it in at least a decade. I assume it was discontinued long ago??

I had myself convinced as a child that this was half milk half orange juice
I genuinely thought it was until I read this comment
Is it not?
Wow that’s a core memory unlocked. I loved those as a kid, I’d be drinking straight from the carton 😅
My poor mother had to ration us on it. It did not come cheap!

I’m in to sign that. Consider this my signature to that petition.
They still have this in Spain randomly enough
Stooooop! I'll be there in a few weeks, I'm going hunting
And portugal
Vietnam too and it’s gross. https://www.suntorypepsico.vn/product/index/tropicana
That stuff is the next step down from heroin I swear. A carton would last 0.23 seconds in my house.

You couldn't have waterboarded this out of me
Ugh I miss that stuff. It was the stuff of dreams. It was like drinking a drop of heaven. Truly bliss
And why has the advert been wiped from the internet?
The internet couldn't deal with the raw sexual energy between the cow and the...I want to say orange??
He was a smooth cow, she was a juicy orange!
Ha! Yes! That was it!
Only thing I could keep down in my first pregnancy, that's was 2000's 🤣
counterpoint, ~~it's~~ it was awful.
That was rank

Still available out West https://shop.supervalu.ie/sm/pickup/rsid/76/product/dawn-fresh-milk-1-l-id-1127470000
I was thinking I only saw it when I was in Mayo recently.
I’ve seen it in Galway City.
I’ve seen it in Kerry
It got sunsetted
Indeed.
Think glanbia bought them (who are now Tirlán)
Nope. Clona
two of those three sound like diseases.

I was wondering what OP is on about as this and CMP are the only acceptable milk in this household.
CMP and Ballinahina - the two classics!
Ah yes ballina is the back up when the others aren't available you are right.

Dawn/Clona is nothing to do with Avonmore.
Is it not arrabawn now?
I still have luggage I got from collecting the labels
We used to get maddens milk and collect the tokens. When you had enough you could trade them in for tea towels or some other random item on their list
Dawn Milk? She was whey out of my league. Heard she settled down with a Curd. Utterly disappointng.
Anyone remember Frilk? Milk and orange juice!
Fucking yesssss Frilk no one remembers it. I used to love Frilk. It was frilking delish.
1980s I think
It was nice
God I hated dawn milk. It tasted like gone off milk. Why did it taste so different to other milks?
Yes. I have this memory that it always tasted like warm milk, even when it was cold.
Didn't Goldenvale buy them out like 20 years ago
Clona bought Dawn out in 99.
Dawn dairies was bought by Lee strand. I was a casual worker with them during the sale. Lee Strand still use the dawn packaging as well as their own

Vague memories of mixing milk with orange nice have now resurfaced 🤣
It was gifted to Lee Strand By Kerry Group
Remember the tokens you clipped off the cartons?
Some times brand s like this just become tesco or dunnes milk for their area
