can you get A2 milk in the US?

[travelwith4kids]

Just watching on the news about Aussie companies trying to break into the US food market and now I'm thinking that we may not be able to buy A2 milk over there?
I didnt even think about it being a problem...assumed you could get it anywhere.
Does anyone know, Thanks!

Milk sold in the supermarkets in the US is labelled rather differently.

I don't know if they have worked out A1 and A2 milk in the labels yet or even if they produce A2 milk.


FWIW - I tend to buy organic milk in the US. Failing that, I go with rBST-free. I'm not too fussed about fat content if I can get organic or rBST-free.

I'm an ex-american having made my permanent move to Australia start of this year

never heard of A1 or A2 milk before coming to Australia (only know A2 from the ad they run nonstop on tv)

America has so many brands and products competing for market share...it's impossible to know every product that's for sale
if I remember might ask family member next time we facetime...if I find out anything useful will post it here

Thanks for the help, I think it might be in the 'too hard basket'
Its just for our toddler so I think I will spend the next few months getting her used to a different milk!
