Milk’s journey from farm to supermarket
Diana Tran explains how cow’s milk is processed into drinking milk and other dairy products, tracing the industrial steps between a basic ingredient and the products found on supermarket shelves. The book frames that process through the perspective of a chemical engineer working in the milk industry, connecting everyday food with the technology and practical decisions involved in its production. Questions about why drinking milk remains liquid, rather than becoming a powder, help anchor this introduction to food processing.
