Abstract

Describes the development of Halo, a new milk‐type product which has less than 20 per cent of the amount of saturated fat to be found in semi‐skimmed milk; and a very acceptable taste. Shows how the product was developed by Northern Dairies in line with Government targets to reduce the level of saturated fat in each individual′s diet. Discusses product development, ingredients, research on taste and acceptability and concludes that Halo is tasty and acceptable and can help to make a substantial reduction in the consumption of saturated fat.
