When disaster strikes, water is one of the first items brought to areas needing help; however, a new farm staple could soon be tagging along.
Chobani has created a dairy milk that is shelf-stable called Chobani Super Milk, and its goal is to provide nutrition during disaster relief efforts. Super Milk includes 50 percent more protein over traditional milk, 25 percent more calcium, and 25 percent less sugar.
The milk does not need to be refrigerated until opening and can be on the shelf for up to 9 months. The company says Super Milk will never be sold in stores and will only be donated for their community impact efforts.
