Milk Lasts Longer Than You Think—If You Do This

Always put your milk in the fridge as soon as you get home. If you have a long drive, use a cooler bag to keep it cold. Set your fridge to 40°F (4°C) or lower. Store milk on the shelves, not the door, for a more stable temperature. Keep the lid tightly closed to prevent your milk from absorbing other food odors. Store it away from strong-smelling foods if you can. Never pour unused milk back into the original container. Once it’s been out, it can spoil super fast. Freeze milk if you won’t use it soon. Leave space in the container for expansion and always thaw it in the fridge. Skim milk freezes best, and don’t forget to label it with the date! When buying, grab milk last and pick the one with the furthest date from the back of the fridge. Use the oldest bottles first. It’s really about the small habits! #MilkStorage #KeepItFresh #KitchenTips #Food #Cooking
