It's good, some of it is made in a small town northwest of Grand Rapids, MI. As mentioned on the website, it's ultra-filtered milk, a process that has been around a long time commonly used to separate whey into sweet whey and whey protein.

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Cutting sugar where I can.

Why not just not drink milk. It is too close to soda as far as health goes.

Is it good?

Currently I use 1% milk.
I tried it when it was first introduced (Meijer had it really cheap), it's good, but expensive compared to ordinary milk. I've just been replacing most milk with water, only drinking 8 oz in the morning.
 
The chocolate milk has splenda in it

FWIW, Fairlife is owned by Coca-Cola

I'm cutting back portions. Milk does have protein and vitamins where soda has none.

I just looked at the chocolate milk.Good grief, No thanks. That has dextrose and maltodextrin in it.

I'm learning fast what has hidden sugars.
 
Thanks. I'm usually a label reader
Been giving regular and chocolate Fairlife to my six year old peanut.
Will go back to Fairlife and ovaltine mix.
 
Make your own yogurt instead if you're looking to get the protein without the dairy sugars.

Nothing good comes from most milk consumption, IMO.

By a very small marginal amount. Strictly due to less fat content as higher fat content will dilute everything else down.

How many species of adult mammals consume milk ?

The whole gig about dairy being necessary is marketing.
 
Last time I looked at Fairlife all their milk is UHT: Ultra-High Temperature pasteurized.
I am not convinced that this is a good thing, the only upside is a longer shelf life.

It's our biggest export - no one is allowed to critise the dairy industry.

Yeah, not only that, Horizon and Organic Valley are all ultra pasteurized I have discovered. What is the point of being organic when the heat kills off everything in the milk?

Now there is raw milk. ha.
I am trying out almond milk right now.
