Dairy products are worth celebrating because of their nutrition content and their cost. Dairy is an affordable way to boost protein intake. Protein is made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks for muscles and tissues in the body.
Idaho produces about 15 billion pounds of milk each year – that’s #3 for milk production in the country! That is one of many reasons why Dairy Month is celebrated in Idaho.
