Yes. Gluten from the animal feed is broken down by the cow's digestive system & is not transferred to the milk.

Can you whip it?

Yes, but Carnation evaporated milk must be cold and whipped evaporated milk must be served immediately.

Is there MSG in this product?

No.

Can I use this past the expiry ( Best Before ) date?

Not recommended as we can not guarantee the nutritional values of the product past the best before date.

Yes.

How long can I keep it in the fridge?
