Dairy Products. Milk, yogurt, butter, cream and sour cream are all bad choices for a compost pile. As these ingredients start to rot, the compost will emit an increasingly foul odor. Dairy products also attract pests like rodents and flies. Do not add bones, meat, animal fat, whole eggs or other animal waste in the compost pile.
Dairy products should be low fat (non-fat or 1% milk, reduced fat cheese and cottage cheese). If possible, try to avoid whole milk products (butter, regular cheese, ice cream, etc.), fried foods, and highly processed foods (high fat crackers, donuts, processed cake, pie, cookies, etc). A diet high in refined sugar (from soft drinks and sugary desserts mentioned above) also increases the risk of gallstones.
