I am sure your family’s schedule is VERY hectic! I know ours is! And sometimes when you have a busy schedule, it’s hard to make sure you (and your loved ones) get all the nutrients our bodies need. I find myself thinking, “It’ll be so much easier to stop at such-and-such a place to get drinks on our way to this or that event.” But the reality is, it’s expensive – even for a cup of water – and it still takes time. So if I can grab a few shelf safe milk cartons out of the pantry (or fridge/freezer), I can save myself time and money all while serving my family something that’s good for them!
Milk is an important part of a healthy diet for people of all ages – it keeps your bones strong and is crucial for child development. One carton of shelf safe milk has eight grams of protein and nine essential nutrients – calcium, vitamins A, D and B12, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, riboflavin, niacin and zinc. Shelf safe milk is real milk with no additives or preservatives that requires no refrigeration until it’s opened. Just Grade A wholesome, nutritious milk. You can have milk anytime, anywhere.
Shelf safe milk is perfect for lunchboxes, diaper bags and purses, for on-the-go enjoyment. You could even freeze the single serving packages the night before and drop it into your child’s lunch bag the next morning, it will be just right by lunch time. Both regular and flavored shelf safe milk makes for a nutritious refreshment anytime with calcium and protein families need.
Shelf safe milk has been around since the 1960’s and is designed for families on the go. Ultra pasteurization and special Tetra Pak eco-friendly cartons keep the milk safe. It’s a hassle-free, convenient way to enjoy milk. It’s milk, unleashed.
I live in South Texas, so it is always warm here. Drinking hot chocolate is something we LOVE, but don’t do often because its just to hot! Our warm-weather Christmas alternative is piling everyone in the car to look at Christmas lights and taking cookies and shelf safe milk with us. It’d be a fun thing to surprise your kids with!

This is actually the first I’ve heard of shelf safe milk. I’m not sure I’ve even seen it in stores before.

I have seen Horizon Organic milk on the shelf before, so I know it exists 🙂 My daughter LOVES milk cartons and I enjoy putting them in her bag.
