Beware what you consume; milk drink with only 1% milk goes viral on the internet

 

ANYONE who grabbed a box of milk drink from the grocery shelf should reasonably expect a nutritious milk drink from their purchase. But nowadays, with all the additives and flavouring, can we be so sure anymore?

The only way to be certain is to have your own cow and to milk it by hand. And looking at the trend where food is concerned, this might actually be a good idea.

Take it from a recent and shocking post from netizen @Outstandjing who shared the contents of a milk drink.

Apparently the drink only contained 1% skimmed milk while water made up 86% of the content. Then there was a long list of chemical names such as trisodium nitrate, lactic acid, acidity regulator and many others that makes you unhealthy just by reading them.

The brand of the drink was Pao, with a happy child right in the middle of a blue background. Though we like to think the child wouldn’t be too happy to find out his milk drink is only 1% milk. 

Then when we think about it, can we pay for the milk with counterfeit money?

A netizen further compared the product to another milk drink which was selling at about the same price, although the content was far different.

Another netizen by the name of @Fitraburn pointed out that those who drank the milk should become just like the illustration on the box.

However, the only redeeming quality for the drink was the description on the box which said, “minuman rasa susu,” or milk flavoured drink. That should explain the lack of nutrients.

Regardless, the post highlights just how much we would have missed as a consumer if we did not check the contents on the product. As we proceed into the future, label reading becomes increasingly vital. Either that or buy a cow and milk it with you own hands. — Focus Malaysia
