    Default Ultrafiltered milk - Fairlife etc.

    What's everyone's opinion on so-called "ultrafiltered" milk products, such as those sold under the Fairlife brand?
    Supposed to have less sugar and more protein then "regular" milk, and no lactose, but also has a different texture, which is a little odd.

    I don't think it's got sufficient benefits to me to justify the much higher price. I don't drink much milk anyway, and this isn't going to change that.

    Is this the one Canadian milk farmers warn us about?

    Wiki
    Dietitians and nutritionists were generally critical of the milk; Alissa Rumsey, a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics expressed, "When you really look at the numbers, it can sound appealing, but in general most Americans are already getting enough protein," adding, "If you need more, eat an egg or a handful of almonds. And people who need more calcium should up their intake of dark leafy greens, not the so-called Frankenmilk."
    The Fairlife line of milk is distributed by Coca-Cola's Minute Maid division.

    If it was the Quebec dairy contingent warning us then I say buy it, they just want to protect their cartel.

    Yeah, if you need more nutrients, buy more products! Don't just buy it in one simple, easy to drink liquid!

    I've done no research on this stuff, but that quote alone screams of paid-for propaganda.

    The chocolate is damn good. And a better PWO drink than the regular chocholate milk.
    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

    I wish they sold atleast a 4L lactose free milk at costco. Getting sick of buying 4 x 2L every week from superstore.

    I came across this UHT milk when I was in Australia. The reason for the extremely long expiry dates (can be up to 6 months) is that they pasterize the milk at a higher heat for longer, and the packaging is specially treated to resist bacteria. They had UHT milk on the shelf (not refrigerated at all) and it tasted just like normal milk.

    I kind of want to try some of this now. I'm not a big milk guy (maybe 1L a month to myself), but this could be useful in cooking/baking as well.

    See no problem with it, plus lactose free is a pretty big deal for a lot of people.

    I use coffeemate double double creamer which i think is ultrafiltered milk. it's nice because it doesn't expire for months unlike normal 10% coffee creamer.

    Hate to burst your bubble, but Coffee Mate is probably as far from milk as you can get

    Coffee Mate Double Double ingredients:
    Water, sugar, high oleic soy oil, sodium caseinate (milk derivative) ,dipotassium phosphate, mono- and diglycerides, cellulose gel, salt, DATEM, flavour and artificial flavour, carrageenan, sucralose

    Had no idea it was unfiltered. The wife buys this down here in LA. I don't notice a taste difference. I only really drink milk w/ coffee though.

    Haha whoops. Thought it might have been since the expiry date was so long but I guess it’s just all the chemicals

    Oh well, still tastes good

    I like the Dairyland Joyya. Extra protein is nice. Obviously all of these are $$$ for like 1.5 l.
    Fairlife says they will use canadian milk in 2020 when their facility is finished. I think lactancia also has UHT milk.
