New product – FairLife milk

Although I would prefer to have no commercials, I do watch them while fast forwarding. (Hint for advertisers: use text or images in same position so when viewing at 2-4x speed, it still makes sense.)  

The other night a commercial caught my eye and we backed it up and watched it at normal speed.  It was for FairLife milk. 
I was immediately interested to try it and so went to their website to find out more. 
They have implemented an innovative way to improve milk.  According to their site “The water, minerals, lactose, protein and fat in milk have five different sizes, so we use five different filters to separate them. Then we recombine them to create our unique ultra-filtered milks loaded with natural nutrition.” 

I’m excited about the milk because the sugars are half of regular milk.  The side benefits are the extra protein, calcium, and being lactose free. 

  
I’m a fan of everything they claim on their site. They even grow their own feed for their cows, and turn manure into CNG to power 42 tractor trailers! It’s nice to know innovation exists in farming and dairies.

Went to store and found it!  Target has it at $3.99 for 52 ounces (1.5 liter).  Publix is $4.19.  We bought 2% and chocolate. It tastes great, with just a tinge of powdered milk flavor. The chocolate is great. Best news is that  the sugars and calories for the chocolate milk are the same as regular milk.  Repeat: The sugars and calories for the chocolate milk are the same as regular milk.  The picture I included here shows the nutritional facts for 2% regular milk, FairLife chocolate, FairLife 2%, and Unsweetened Almond milk. 

Unsweetened Almond milk, by far, has the lowest values at 30 calories per serving and 0 net carbs, but only 1 protein.  The FairLife has 13g.  

As you can see by the picture, I use a mix of products.  My use of alternative products increases as the price drops, so I’m hoping it isn’t long till we only buy FairLife.

Check them out!  Enjoy.
