The dairy aisle is one big happy family of milk with all kinds of textural variations. Yogurt, cheese, and ice cream are all offspring of a single ingredient: milk! There are great textural transformations that happen when food scientists go through the process of turning milk into these three different food products. This episode, we talk about these wondrous milk derivatives and how these siblings are producing such different structures and tastes.

What textures do we like the best? Are companies generating the next wave of food texture preferences?
