Pasteurized Organic Whole Milk

Pasteurized organic whole milk is milk from cows raised on certified organic farms, meaning they are not treated with synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, and are not given antibiotics or growth hormones. 'Whole' means it contains its natural fat content. Pasteurization is a heating process that kills harmful bacteria, making the milk safer to drink.

Whole milk is used as a beverage and as a key ingredient in dairy products like yogurt, cheese, and ice cream. Its fat content contributes to richness, texture, and flavor in many foods, including baked goods, sauces, and soups.

Pasteurized organic whole milk is a source of protein, calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognizes milk as a major food allergen. Major health organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated milk and dairy products, but do not set specific intake limits for whole milk itself. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is generally considered safe.
