Viscosities range from that of whole milk, to “thick milkshake” products which achieve their viscosity through use of thickening additives, sometimes in combination with freezing. Yogurt drinks are similar in composition, but are processed differently and are not covered in this report. Milk ingredients are also used in smoothies to add texture and interest. Find out more about the Manufacture of Smoothies. In most countries, legislation covers the composition and labelling of these products. These regulations restrict the use of certain ingredients and specify minimum content of fat and total solids. Ingredient Typical % Function 0 - 3.5 Fat adds body and mouthfeel. Lower fat contents are more refreshing and suited Milk Fat 1% is to fruit flavors. Chocolate works better in higher fat formulations. typical A blend of milks is used to give a particular fat content. Sugar Various sugars, syrups and artificial sweetener blends is used. 4 - 6 Chocolate milks are usually formulated with higher sugar/sweetener content. Many different flavors are possible, the most common being banana, Flavor 0.1 strawberry and chocolate. The use of flavorings is controlled by legislation in many countries. Both natural and synthetic flavors are used. Color Liquid colors are added to strawberry milks. Choice of color is determined by 0.1 processing conditions, and may be affected by legislation.

    Handout #8.1 Diapering/ Toileting Diapering and the use of potty chairs carry distinct risks to the child care environment. Since the changing area is one of the places where germs which cause disease are most likely to live and spread, these activities must be handled with extreme care and attention to sanitation. The Diapering Area The health and safety of the children in your child care setting demand that diapering be carried out in an environment that has been carefully planned. These are some important rules about the diapering area that should be remembered: • Use the area only for diapering. • Set up the diapering area as far away as possible from any food handling area. • Provide running water so hands can be washed immediately after a diaper is changed. Ideally, a diaper changing area should be within arm’s reach of a sink. • Construct a flat and safe diapering surface high enough so that you do not put extra stress on your back. • Be sure this surface is clean, waterproof and free of cracks or crevices. A good pad on the surface with a waterproof cover is more comfortable for the child. • Cover the surface with a disposable cover. Use cheap materials such as paper bags, used computer paper (on the “wrong” side), rolls of paper, etc. or buy disposable squares from discount medical supply companies. • Keep all creams, lotions and cleaning items out of the reach of children, but within your reach. Never give a child any of these to play with while being diapered, since s/he could be poisoned.

But it wasn’t until 1921, when George and Bud Rutter began Rutter’s dairy retail trucks have evolved from their beginning delivering milk to selling milk from said farm, that customers’ homes.

  • Actually Rejected. a Considerable Amount of Off-Flavored Milk and Cream Is Accepted Which Can Not Be Made Into High-Grade Dairy- Products
    264 YEARBOOK OF AGRICULTURE, 1927 actually rejected. A considerable amount of off-flavored milk and cream is accepted which can not be made into high-grade dairy- products. The resulting manufactured products must be sold at relatively low prices, and the returns to dairy farmers are correspond- ingly low. No industry, even a prosperous one, can afford to shoulder such a load. If such losses occurred in any other of the giant trade channels of this country, instant steps would be taken to find and correct the trouble. Efficiency experts, factory-management studies, research laboratories, engineers—all would be used to solve the problem. Progress in Dairy Sanitation Is this '^old man of the sea'^ saddled forever upon the dairy indus- try? By no means. His grip is loosening rapidly and he may be shaken off by concerted effort. Two things point to his ultimate elimination. One is the progress already made in dairy sanitation; the other is the fact that the solution of the problem is already pretty well worked out. Great strides have been made in overcom- ing this waste. It was not so many years ago that sour milk on the breakfast table was a fairly common occurrence. Now one can travel almost anywhere and be assured of purchasing sweet, palat- able milk. All this has come about in spite of the fact that the milk supply of this country is much more complex than it used to be. Milk is now transported hundreds of miles to the cit}'^, whereas it used to come from closely adjacent territory.
