Mother dairy milk brand is a very trusted brand for all peoples.Milk is good for you; this phrase is probably one of those few things which we have been made to believe is set in stone. When one mentions milk, almost instantly the words that come to mind are creamy, fresh and calcium booster. When we contemplated a milk taste test, the first question that struck us was -But doesn’t all milk taste the same? Well, we may have been wrong all that Milk’s got character.
Cow’s milk is supposed to be sweet with a mild after-taste, creamier on the tongue, fresh and slightly off-white in colour. Buffalo’s milk, on the other hand, is white and thick. It has more proteins, fat and calories. In a quest to discover if what we’re drinking really holds up to these standards, we decided to do a blind taste-test with five popular brands of milk.
The size of India’s dairy industry is 3 lakh crore rupees and milk accounts for most of this. The 2014-15 figures indicate that we produced 147 million tons of milk which makes us the world’s largest milk producer. Though a large part of this market is raw buffalo milk, we decided to taste pasteurized cow’s milk because it’s more popular in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities where you won’t find too many takers for raw milk. Raw milk comes straight from the farm to your doorstep, along with a long list of unanswered questions about ’health and safety.
In the last few years, there’s been a lot of talk on whether you should drink milk or not. But if you’re not lactose intolerant then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t. It’s rich in calcium and Vitamin D, good for your bones and does your body a whole lot of good for health.
The World Health Organisation ( WHO) suggests that an adult needs 400 to 500 milligrams of calcium a day to prevent bone fracture and maintain good bone health. One glass of toned milk has about 125 milligrams of calcium, which means you need to drink anywhere between three to four glasses of milk a day. Some other advocates of health and food recommend as high as 1200 milligrams of calcium a day for people up to the age of 50. The United States Department of Agriculture recommends three cups of milk a day for anyone over the age of 8.
