- 228 additional family farmers are in the process of converting to organic through the HOPE program. Farm Animal Welfare:

I didn't mention flavor, as it's forgettable (in a good way). It tastes just like Horizon milk, and it has the same nutrition. Highly recommended for any use.
I don’t stock up on shelf stable milk and buy as the small cartons I buy tend to have a short shelf life. However, it should still have a number of months (not weeks) before expiration. Dates vary but the Horizon milk I received has 5 months until expiration, which is reasonable and similar to the shelf life left when I’ve bought Organic Valley 1% milk cartons. I suggest checking price on both brands as this Horizon milk is a currently a superior value to 1% Organic Valley at about half the price for 18 instead of 12 cartons that are 8 oz each rather 6.75 oz. Will buy Horizon again. 5 stars.
We tried buying the powdered milk, but could never get the consistency right for drinking so we only use it for baking. My husband likes Silk soy milk, but I've never been a huge fan. On a whim, I typed "Milk" into the Amazon search and this product popped up in several varieties. I had never heard of milk that didn't need to be refrigerated and had a shelf life of a year. I had to try it.
I bought the white milk and the chocolate milk, that comes in handy for those midnight chocolate cravings! The chocolate milk is pretty tasty. It doesn't taste exactly like the Nestle or Oak Farms chocolate milk I'm used to. It doesn't seem as rich, but it was an easily acclimated taste. I've used the white milk on Frosted Flakes and to make Kraft Mac & Cheese so far with great results. The mac & cheese had a nice tang to it.
If you are used to drinking Organic, Reduced Fat Milk, this product will probably taste no different to you. If you don't usually drink this type of product, there is a slight taste variation, but is quickly overlooked.
It is a bit more expensive buying milk this way, but if you are anything like we are, the added expense is worth it for the convenience of always having unspoiled milk available and being able to grab one on the go. We've probably thrown away hundreds of dollars of spoiled milk over the years.
We also buy the single serving cereal bowls and these milks are the perfect size to fill the bowl at the office.
