How to buy dairy products?

Buying milk may look like the simplest thing in the world but actually there are quite a lot of choices. Many people are unaware of the benefits of each different type of milk and pick up the closest or cheapest but may later be surprised by an odd taste.

Go to your nearest/prefered shop that sells milk. A groceries or supermarket is likely to sell milk.

Go to the “refrigerated dairy” section. It is normally quite easy to find but if you are really at a loss then ask a member of staff.

Choose the milk that you want to buy:

Organic: Cows in an organic herd have access to a pasture, are only given antibiotics when they are ill, and have not been treated with bovine growth hormone (BGH) to increase milk production. Many organic cows are fed non-GM food. It is argued to be better for you and for the cows. However, it is typically more expensive.
