Maybe schools should stop offering the sugar filled chocolate and strawberry milks. I can’t believe they are even allowed to offer it. Offer white only

It’s disgusting.

There's no milk shortage. there's a shortage of the small cartons dairy producers fill with milk and sell to schools. That's not how milk is sold to individual households. If anything, the carton shortage could lead dairy producers to shift sales away from schools, lowering prices for other ways milk is used/sold.

We bought some at the beginning of Covid. Never ended up needing it.

I realized it has a much shorter shelf life than I expected when I went to use it later for baking when I ran out of regular.

Or just don’t drink milk?

Shelf-stable milk is mostly what we had when we lived overseas, in the four different countries we lived in.

Its required by schools and they're out.

I bought a flat of this stuff in January 2020 to prep for Covid because we had a 1 year old and I wasn't sure what was going to happen to the supply chain. We ended up never needing it and I donated it to a food bank when it still had 6 months until expiration.

I keep it in the house for when we run out, inevitably on a busy morning before school and work. My kids call it "emergency milk". It has saved quite a few mornings in our house.

Nothing worse than sterilized milk. Completely changes the taste.

Blargh.

Bizarre post.

Here are some recommendations! Hoosier Hill Farms, Azure Standard, and Auguson Farms.

In California, state education officials told schools to be flexible with how they offer milk to kids, including limiting milk choices; using boxed, shelf-stable milk; and providing milk using bulk dispensers.

If you're looking for the gold standard try - Horizon Organic , if you want a familiar name Carnation makes a good powdered milk.
