There have been several new products announced this week.

In the US, Borden Dairy​ has launched three milks with flavors designed to recreate the experience of going to fairs cancelled by the coronavirus pandemic.

Dallas-based Borden has created three limited edition products – Cotton Candy, Caramel Popcorn, and Banana Taffy.

The flavored milks will be available for purchase in 16-oz. bottles at Walmart, HEB, Circle K, Dallas and Houston Kroger stores, and other retailers in Texas, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Ohio.

"While we can't all be together in person to enjoy all the famous food of the State Fair, families can still enjoy the Fair's fun and indulgent flavors in their homes when they try Borden's unique milk flavors,"​ said Pete Schenkel, Borden board member and former chairman of the State Fair of Texas.

"The State Fair holds a special place in my heart as it does for many, and the company is honoring the tradition by bringing consumer-voted flavors to the dairy aisle through mid-October."
