Guida's 2% Reduced Fat Milk
What it is
This is a half-gallon container of 2% reduced-fat milk. It comes from cows and has undergone pasteurization, a process that heats the milk to kill harmful bacteria. The 2% designation refers to the milk's fat content, which is lower than whole milk but higher than skim milk. This milk is a common staple in many households for drinking and cooking.
