The Milk turns up in fridges. These named places from our town guides fit that description; loot is random, so none is guaranteed.

Every town and store type: loot locations and the map.

Where the Milk comes up in our guides, with the line that mentions it:

• Animals: “Milk them daily or let a calf nurse, or they dry up within days.”
• Farming & food: “Long term: animals for eggs, milk and meat, a drying rack and preserved food for winter.”
• Every crop: “Spray cans with milk, tobacco or rubbing alcohol treat the first three; slug repellent is loot only.”
• Project Zomboid FAQ: “Plant companions like garlic and marigold, keep weeds down, and treat with sprays made from milk, tobacco or rubbing alcohol.”
• The Project Zomboid beginner's guide: “Fresh meat, milk, eggs and vegetables rot in days, faster with no power.”

A whole Milk. In Build 42 this is a 1.0 carton of cow's milk; its stats come from the fluid inside.

Compare it with everything else on the food list, and see cooking for recipes.

Milk Carton is on 17 loot tables in the game files. Share is how much of a table's total weight this item takes, before your sandbox loot settings. Each container rolls its table several times, so a bigger share and more rolls both mean you see it more often.

It is on 9 more tables with smaller shares.

Inside bags and cases: Plastic Bag, Garbage Bag.
