Example Sentences
- "It is often difficult to obtain clean fresh goat’s milk. Proprietary canned goat’s milks are on the market."
- "Commercial-scale quantities of evaporated and spray-dried powder goat’s milks are produced in the United States and elsewhere. However, little information is available on nutritional and manufacturing parameters of butter, condensed, evaporated and dried milks from goat’s milk."
- "Goat’s milk is in fact more similar to human milk than cow’s milk, but it is still unmodified and should never be given to a baby under six months. Some goat’s milks are unpasteurized and should not be given to young children because of the risk of bacterial infection in a baby whose immune system is still not fully developed. If you do give unpasteurized goat’s milk to a child under one it should be boiled first."
