Prior to becoming lactose intolerant, I used to consume this a lot. Safe to say, if I decide to consume this once a week with the proper amount of lactase pills, it would not expire. When I did buy this, the packaging would always very durable and quality was always consistent. I am writing this review years after the fact and it makes me reminisce my past when I didn't have to worry about stupid things like taxes, job searching, existentialism and digestive issues :( .
I gave these 4 stars only because they have a lot of sugar but you know that going on--so I wish they were just a little healthier. But for a shelf stable chocolate milk that I don't have to refrigerate unless I want to, they are great. They were a really good price on subscribe and save so thought I would give them a try. This brand is general dependable and tastes like milk!
My son loves the strawberry flavor (he calls it pink milk) and the grocery stores by us rarely have it, they only sell chocolate and vanilla. Thank god for amazon and prime!
We order 2 boxes per month and he is a happy camper. We haven’t had any issues with the delivery up to this point. Highly recommend this product if you’re looking for organic strawberry milk.
I pack this into my son's lunch boxes daily. I like it that it needs no refrigeration.
My local grocery is always out of the strawberry one, and that's the flavor my son enjoys. So Amazon Subscribe and Save to the rescue.
The price is comparable and sometimes even cheaper than my local grocery store. I also like it that I can get a big package and not worry about anything about picking it up at the local store. One less thing for a busy working mom to think about.
My youngest daughter will only drink chocolate milk. Even then, she doesn't drink much. These are perfect because of the small amount, the ability to store in the pantry instead of the refrigerator and the organic part makes me happy (no bovine growth hormones or lactation hormones to increase the milk production.
I am lactose intolerant but once a week I brave the side effects to drink a box (it is that good!)
Consider the auto-ship program to get a discount on the price.
Although a bit pricey it winds up being less expensive because there is no waste due to spoilage (no science projects in the fridge.
We have started buying the Horizon brand white milk as well. In addition to the healthy aspects of the organic milk it tastes better too. My wife was concerned that we were spending a lot more for organic milk and she did not think we could tell the difference. We did a blind taste test, and both my daughter and myself identified the Horizon brand five times out of six as the milk we liked better (the sixth time she tried to fool us by giving us the same milk in both glasses!
You will save space, save money, and drink more of a healthier milk

Description
Great for lunchboxes, snacks, travel and more, our shelf-stable milk boxes are a perfect alternative to juice boxes.
We love Horizon organic milk (and pretty much all their products)! My kids love all flavors of this milk, including the regular ol' white milk. They tell me they know when they are not drinking Horizon milk by the taste, like at school. Due to the higher sugar content in the flavored milks (vanilla, strawberry and chocolate), I usually water down these flavors with white milk a litte in their cups at home. They don't seem to care either way and drink all their milk at meals without being nagged. We love the convenience of being able to toss these packages in the cooler too for road trips or take a stock pile without keeping in a cooler for longer trips.
A few important tips, make sure you shake well before opening and serving; and if you want to keep the milk for being squeezed out when little hands are holding, raise the flaps on either side of the package before poking the straw through the top and handing over to the child. I learned this from a pre-school teacher with juice boxes and it works well for these milk packages also.
My daughter is two and she loves these. They are very convenient to give her and that they do not need to be refrigerated until they are opened. I love that they are organic and low fat.
I love the conveince of amazon and having these mailed right to my door. It also saves me a little money vs purchasing one at school every day for my daughter. She likes them a lot
My kids love them and pack them in their lunches daily. I feel better sending these rather than many sugary alternatives.
Delicious
