Frequently Asked Questions
Is whole milk healthier than skim milk?
Both have benefits. Whole milk provides more satiety and fat-soluble vitamins, while skim has fewer calories. Current research suggests whole milk's saturated fat may be less harmful than once thought.
How long does whole milk last after opening?
Opened whole milk typically stays fresh for 5-7 days when properly refrigerated at 35-40°F. Trust your senses - sour smell or lumpy texture indicates spoilage.
Can lactose intolerant people drink whole milk?
Lactose intolerant individuals should avoid regular whole milk or choose lactose-free whole milk, which has the same nutrition with lactase enzyme added for easier digestion.
