In the KC area Walmart's Great Value and Target's Market Pantry (both private label) come from the Hiland dairy in KC. Aldi milk in the KC area comes from Dean's Foods dairy. They highlight "Dairy Pure" products. No antibiotics, no rSBT. I think Hiland does the same thing without the catchy marketing slogan.
Here's the website to put in the code from your dairy containers:

I used this both times (each at a different location) when my milk was bad despite having 10 days left until expiration.
I’m wondering if Aldi’s milk sits longer on the shelf before it gets to the store compared to Walmart, HyVee etc and that’s why it it’s hit or miss?
I’m not shitting on them bc I’ve gotten some great canned goods and packaged stuff, but I have had a bad experience with the essentials like meat, milk and produce.
