This year, people are missing out on being able to visit their favorite state fairs but Borden Dairy is helping to satisfy the craving for unique flavors with a trio of limited-edition milk products. The company's new fair-inspired flavored milk products are being introduced in varieties like Cotton Candy, Caramel Popcorn, and last year's blue ribbon winner, Banana Taffy.
Ordinarily, the company has a presence at the State Fair of Texas and brings consumer-voted flavors to the dairy aisle later in the fall. Fortunately, fans will still have the chance to vote for their favorite flavor and participate in contests.
While consumers may be familiar with flavored milks in classic varieties like strawberry, chocolate and vanilla, these unique offerings tap into the flavors of a food and drink discovery experience that people are missing out on this season.
