fairlife Whole Ultra-Filtered Milk, 52 fl oz — MUNCH

Munch or Dump rates fairlife Whole Ultra-Filtered Milk, 52 fl oz by Fairlife MUNCH — score 90/90.

fairlife is real cow's milk run through ultra-filtration to concentrate protein and strip out lactose and some sugar, so a cup of the whole version lands around 13 g protein and 6 g sugar, with only lactase enzyme and vitamins A and D added. The '50% more protein, 50% less sugar' claim is honest: nothing is added, the milk's own protein is simply concentrated. Clean, minimally processed, and does what it promises.

Why this verdict

• Ingredient list is essentially real milk plus lactase enzyme and vitamins A and D; classified NOVA 1, minimally processed
• About 13 g of naturally occurring protein per cup, concentrated by filtration rather than added
• Lactose-free and lower in sugar than regular milk, which backs its marketing claims
• No artificial additives, sweeteners, or thickeners anywhere on the label
