Today's Best of Utah Food is in honor of the game this Friday against Utah State, since Gossner's Dairy is in Logan.
Gossner's Rootbeer Milk
All of Gossner's milk is UHT milk-in-a-box, which if you've lived the ex-pat life, you know as that Parmalat euro milk stuff. Most of their product goes to the US Military, they have the contract to provide UHT milk to soldiers all over the globe, except for the Persian Gulf, which goes to a Kuwaiti company. A few years ago, Gossner attempted to pressure the military to use their milk in combat zones, but unfortunately, the bills two staunchest supporters were Larry Craig R-ID (lewd conduct in mens restroom) and David Vitter R-LA (prostitution client).
The Gossners are 7th generation dairy farmers, the first five generations in Switzerland, and the last 2 generations in Cache Valley by way of Wisconsin and the California. They get their milk from Utah, and own milk and cheese plants in Heyburn ID, El Centro CA, and Logan.
Their milk comes in regular, vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and rootbeer. There is no way UHT milk is going to compete with unprocessed dairy milk, and it tastes a little like canned milk. Their flavored milk is very sweet, and will only appeal to kids and adults who eat like kids. If you still eat Lucky Charms, drink orange fanta, and chew juicy fruit gum, you'll like the flavored milk.
Rootbeer milk, however, has special qualities that deserve special mention. It tastes amazingly similar to Chai Tea Latte with extra cream and sugar. For a WOW-compliant treat, on a hot day, slowly heat up the rootbeer milk in a saucepan until it is at a gentle boil. Do not over heat. Pour over crushed ice. Add tapioca balls if desired.
Additional note: Gosners also makes flavored squeaky cheese, garlic being the most delicious flavor. However, these bags of squeaky cheese are only available at the plant in Logan, so try some when you're in the area. Milk available at Maceys.

. I also just go straight for the chocolate shake. It's simple, I know. Living in South Korea comes with a lot of benefits and a lot of great food. Sometimes, though, I really need a good burger and a shake. ㅜ.ㅜ 
They just don't exist over here, even in Seoul.
