Parmalat

Parmalat is a recently introduced brand in the United States, but it has actually been in existence since 1961. Originally, Parmalat was primarily known as an Italian brand for nearly three decades. It started in Italy by pasteurizing and selling milk in glass bottles. However, in the 1990s, it expanded its presence to American and other European markets. By 2018, it had become an international brand with a presence in more than 23 countries.

In present times, finding this brand in the United States is quite convenient. However, you might be surprised to learn where to look for it. Parmalat milk is stocked on the pantry shelves in grocery stores, rather than being placed in the refrigerated section. The reason behind this placement is the way Parmalat milk is processed.

Parmalat exclusively produces Ultra High Temperature "UHT" milk. This means the milk undergoes pasteurization at extremely high temperatures to eliminate any bacteria. Subsequently, it is quickly packaged and sealed in air-tight cartons to prevent the growth of new bacteria. As a result, the milk can remain unrefrigerated until it is opened. Although it may seem unusual to purchase milk that is not chilled, this type of milk is an excellent choice for having a carton of milk on hand for emergencies. It originates from the same cows as refrigerated milk and possesses the same nutrients and flavor. The only difference is the processing method.

This processing technique can also be applied to lactose-free milk, which is why Parmalat is recognized as one of the top brands. While they offer only one option for lactose-free milk, it is an outstanding choice for incorporating a lactose-free alternative into your food storage. Another advantage of this brand is its accessibility and affordability. You can find it at nearly any Walmart store across the United States.
