White Milk!

Milk is consumed in many cultures from the common animals; sheep, goats and cattle. Milk is a white liquid with a smooth texture. The product contains many nutrients and vitamins. Due to this, milk can be given to infants at a very young age. 



Milk goes through a process to ensure it is cleaned and safe for selling in shopping centres. Milk has been a staple in many households for hundreds of years with the the 'first glass bottle packaging for milk being used in the 1870s.'("The History Of Milk"). However over time it is rare to see glass packing due to the industrial change with majority being stored plastic bottles or cardboard cartons. 

At an international level, there are currently more than 6.5 billion consumers of milk. Overall milk improves nutrition and food security in developing countries. ('Status and Prospects for Smallholder Milk Production, Hemme, T)
