UHT vs pasteurized — why it matters
Most Vinamilk cartons in supermarkets are UHT (ultra-high temperature) — safe at room temperature until opened, long shelf life, slightly cooked taste. Dalatmilk is pasteurized fresh milk — closer to raw milk flavour, shorter shelf life, must stay cold. Read our UHT vs fresh milk for expats guide or the Vietnamese pasteurized vs UHT deep dive.
