Added to it Milk :A cow makes milk inside a part of her body called udders. Cows are milked twice a day. Machines pump the milk out of the cows' udders. The milk is cooled and taken in big tankers to a factory. In the factory, the milk is heated to kill germs. The milk is put into bottles or cartons and taken to shops so we can buy it. Cow's milk has a watery part and a thicker part called cream. Sometimes the cream is mixed through the milk before it is bottled or put in a carton. Sometimes the cream is taken out and put into bottles and taken to shops to be sold separately. Milk without cream is called skim milk. It is put into bottles and cartons and taken to shops. Some milk is made into cheese. Some milk is made into butter. The milk is shaken until it turns into butter. Some milk is made into yoghurt Thomas, R. & Sydenham, S. Farms: Cattle [Online] (2001
