: Horizon Organic Reduced Fat Milk, 8-Ounce Aseptic Cartons (Pack of 18)

Rating: - Horizon Organic Reduced Fat Milk, 8-Ounce Aseptic Cartons (Pack of 18)

I was delighted when Horizon came out with Aseptic carton milk. We live in an area that is subjected to frequent thunder and ice storms. We lose power regularly. The shelf life of aseptic carton milk is about 4 to 6 months...so keep a couple cartons on hand and rotate them as needed. The flavor is excellent. It's hard to make pancakes and eggs without power but at least a bowl of cereal is doable with this product.

Rating: - Shelf Life???
I have not tasted this product, so sorry no help there. However, I do not recommend ordering for long term use or emergency preparedness. I ordered at the beginning of Sept and my product has an expiration of mid Nov. We might be using this pricey milk around the house just to avoid waste.

Rating: - Great Tasting Milk
I have to admit that at first I felt like I was just paying a premium for the word "organic." However, upon actually drinking the product and seeing the longer shelf life I realized that the nominal amount I paid was well worth it.
Pros
The milk tastes fresher and smoother than regular non-organic milk.
The shelf life is almost 2 months longer than regular non-organic milk & does not require refrigeration until you want to drink it (recommended but not required) or after you've open it.
The container is portable and keeps milk cool long after you take it out of the fridge.
Con
It does cost more than non-organic milk.
It is probably less expensive to buy the Horizon brand gallon sized milk at the store.

Rating: - DO NOT BUY THIS!!! DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST ! HORIZON IS A SCAM!!!
After researching Horizon Products (milk, yogurt, sour cream, etc.) I found out that they have the fields of organic grass, but they do not let the cows out into it. In fact, there are pictures of every time of day with cows sitting in the dirt looking into the fenced pasture. In order to be considered "organic", the farm where Horizon gets their milk to make all their products has the pasture to qualify by law, but apparently that's all they need. BEWARE, AND DO YOUR EXTENSIVE RESEARCH FIRST! google "horizon organic scam". Amazon would not let me post a link for everyone...so PLEASE google this for yourself before buying anything from horizon.
