Description
All of our milk is a Grade A milk procured from local family-owned dairies. Borden’s Milk is aseptically processed under Ultra High Temperatures (UHT). The UHT process enables our milk to remain fresh with or without refrigeration for 12 months from production date.Borden products are naturally produced without artificial hormones from cows not treated with rbST. Recombinant bovine somatotropin rbST (also known as recombinant bovine growth hormone rBGH) is a genetically engineered version of a natural growth hormone found in cattle that increases milk output from cows.
As the furor over the use of rbST continues you can rest assured knowing Borden has mandated their farms are certified "rbST free" and that Borden products are from cows not treated with the rbST growth hormone.
