Milk - Store Well Waste Less

■ Keep fresh milk refrigerated as much as possible - as soon as you take it home and right after each use.

■ Ultra-high temperature pasteurization and sterilized packaging allows shelf-stable milks to be stored at room temperature for up to 6 months. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 7 to 10 days.

■ Store powdered milk and canned evaporated milk in a cool, dry place.

■ Refrigerate evaporated milk after opening. Use within 3 to 4 days

■ Freeze extra milk:

■ Leave space in containers for milk to expand during freezing.

■ Thaw in the refrigerator then shake well.

■ Flavor and texture change slightly so use it in cooking.
