About Milk, canned, condensed, sweetened
This thick, syrupy dairy product is made by removing about 60% of the water content from whole milk and adding sugar, resulting in a concentrated, sweetened milk with a rich, creamy texture and a light caramel color. With nearly 321 calories per 100 grams, it is an energy-dense food that provides a significant amount of carbohydrates—primarily from added sugar—along with 7.9 grams of protein and 8.7 grams of fat. It contains no fiber and is not a significant source of vitamins or minerals unless fortified.
Due to its high sugar and calorie content, it should be used in moderation, especially by those monitoring their sugar intake or managing conditions like diabetes. However, it can be a valuable source of quick energy and protein in small amounts. Its rich, sweet flavor and smooth consistency make it a popular ingredient in desserts, baked goods, and confections such as fudge, toffee, and caramel. It is also used in beverages like Vietnamese iced coffee and Thai tea, and as a base for certain sauces and fillings. In some cultures, it is added to porridge or puddings for added richness and sweetness.
