What You Should Know

You'd find this quart tucked in the refrigerated dairy case — a go-to for weekend pancake mornings, biscuits, dressings, or any recipe that calls for tangy cultured milk. It reads wholesome and comforting, evoking home baking and simple kitchen nostalgia rather than indulgent or highly processed treats. The ingredient list (cultured milk, salt, vitamin fortification) and lack of industrial additives suggest texture and flavor come from fermentation and minimal processing, not from ultra-processed formulations.
