    For those not Pasteur-fluent: "ultra"-pasteurized milk has four or five times the shelf life of regular "pasteurized" milk.

        @neiltyson Who cares. You are neither an infant nor a cow. You shouldn't be drinking it no matter how pasteurized it is.

        @neiltyson Have you noticed non-fat milk last longer? My informal independent refrig research appears to point fingers at fat

        @neiltyson But "ultra" pasteurized doesn't taste as good. Local #milk pasteurized the traditional way tastes better & lasts longer

        @neiltyson More commonly known as UHT milk, it's the only type of liquid milk available in non-milk-producing countries.
