The Evolution of Milk Consumption: From home delivery to nut-based alternatives, milk consumption has changed drastically. Be cautious of overzealous marketing promises.
The way we consume certain products, like milk, has drastically changed over the years. While milk used to be delivered to homes in glass bottles, now we have various milk alternatives, such as almond milk, that come in different packaging.
