How Safe Are Those Cereals And Milk Measured And From Bags. by Mummyfour(f): 11:06am On Apr 02, 2023
If you go to different markets in Nigeria today, you would see bags of milk like Dano, Lactorish and the likes being sold with measuring plates and cups from their bags and into smaller nylon bags to the buyers.

Also different types of cereals and sugar are also seen to be measured and sold that way to customers who prefer to buy such because according to them they are more in quantity and cheaper than the already packaged ones whose price have sky rocketed because of the prevailing inflation in the land.

It is the buyers and of course sellers opinion that those ones sold openly are the same as the already packaged ones which they claim are also gotten from the companies that sell the packaged ones, only that they are cheaper because they didn't undergo the long expensive processes of repackaging into shelve sizes.

I am really more particular about the milk, because on few occasions I have had to buy the milk especially the Lactorish milk albeit reluctantly though.
But the milk tastes nice and rich grin as the name implies. I have had to argue with some people that those particular milk are not for direct consumption because I feel they don't contain the required nutrients, but I allowed myself to be convinced into buying it few times.

Now the questions are: Are they safe and nutritious?

Are they also good enough as the ones packaged and sold on the counter or shelves?

Are they for direct consumption or for baking and cooking ( my opinion though)?

Oya let's do justice to the topic

I don't see them as safe thou...
I just have this feeling that they have expired anytime i see them.... So i can never buy.
I'll rather buy the one i opened myself.

I can't buy any food product that has to be opened and measured.
Especially if it won't be heated before consumption.

I dont think they are expired or unsafe, bexausw that's the same type industries buy and use for commercial biscuit production. It is just a matter of packaging it comes in.

The sachet milk are from these same bags just that they brand them differently and repackage n Lagos before distributing all over Nigeria.
