PENSACOLA, Fla. (RFD-TV) — National Dairy Month officially begins Monday, serving as a chance to recognize dairy farmers and the products continuing to evolve across grocery stores.
Culinary instructor and cookbook author Brooke Parkhurst joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to discuss changing shopping habits and growing versatility within the dairy aisle.
In her conversation with RFD-TV, Parkhurst discussed how dairy sections are expanding beyond traditional staples to include globally inspired dips, flavored creamers, and kefirs.
The discussion also focused on dairy’s role in protein-focused diets and why many consumers continue viewing dairy products as a strong value for families.
“I might have chicken at home, vegetables, but I’m going to go to the dairy aisle specifically for those stretch ingredients that help me make a casserole tonight, make a pasta the next night. They’re going to help me watch my budget, but I’m always serving my family and myself, a delicious, protein-packed food.”
Parkhurst also highlighted some of her favorite quick summer meals using dairy ingredients, as well as her June Dairy Month $10,000 Sweepstakes.
