School officials from Pennsylvania and New York to California are scrambling for backup options after a main supplier of cartons said demand has outstripped supply.
The tiny, half-pint cartons of milk served with millions of school lunches nationwide may soon be scarce in some cafeterias, with districts across the country scrambling to find alternatives.
The shortage is affecting the company’s ability to "fully supply some school milk orders," according to Matt Herrick, spokesperson for the International Dairy Foods Association. The carton shortage — which could also affect milk and juice served in hospitals, nursing homes and prisons — has forced officials across the country to brainstorm backup plans.
