No, sour milk and buttermilk is not the same, but you are absolutely right when you say sour milk is whole milk that is too far gone to drink. Too many people think that sour milk is whole milk with vinegar added. And if you want to simulate buttermilk, take sour cream and dilute it with whole milk, this will represent buttermilk much better than adding vinegar to milk.

The taste isn't wonderful, but it really does work well in recipes calling for buttermilk. Sour milk is a wonderful additive in chocolate cake and it's a good way to use up milk that is too far gone to drink, but helps keep chocolate cake moist.
