Yet it’s especially important to remember that truism now, when the weather’s getting hot; during the summer, people often crave cold water or sodas and forget that a glass of cold milk helps you take the heat in your stride Milk production, says the U.S. Department of Agriculture, will be at or near its peak during May, indicating ample supplies for consumers. Appropriately enough, June is Dairy Mon th.. ..so it’s a good time all around to make sure you’re using milk to best advantage If you want to cut food costs and still provide the milk your family needs, you can try changing your pattern of buying and using milk. Here are a few sugfgestions; Buy fresh fluid milk at a food or dairy retail store. Milk often costs more when delivered to the home. Buy freSh milk in multiquart containers, if you can use this much without waste. Usually, milk in half-gallon containers costs less per quart than single quarts. Remember also, especially when the weather is warm, to refrigerate milk as soon as possible after purchase or delivery. Letting milk stand in the sunlight causes loss of riboflavin and may affect flavor. Don’t mix new milk with old except for immediate use and remember, for best flavor, use fresh milk within three to five days after purchase. We’re your kind of people.
