    Been only buying organic milk for 10+ years now out of preference, it stays fresh for much longer than normal milk. This is because USDA Organic milk is ultra-pasteurized in almost the same way as shelf-stable milk.

    I searched and found this article and they reported that there’s virtually no difference in nutrients between the options:

    So if all the nutrients are the same, the only difference in less pasteurization is more bacteria. Fuck that!

      I think it definitely affects the taste though doesn’t it? I prefer the organic ones that are vat pasteurized due to that reason, ultra feels sweeter to me.
