Got milk? The Dallas Independent School District does.

At nine of the district’s campuses, the milk options aren’t just white or chocolate — they’re green.

While milk may do a body good, it doesn’t stay good for long.

That’s one of the reasons Dallas ISD is pilot testing a shelf stable milk program.

They say milk is ultra-high pasteurized with a long shelf life, but with all the regular nutrition and vitamins.

The test pilot program is to see if the offsets in less waste and lower electricity make it cost-effective.

If widely adopted, it could put fewer refrigerated trucks on highways.
