    I get ultra-pasteurized milk.

    I’ve only seen it in the half-gallon cardboard boxes, not the plastic one-gallon containers. But, I only go through half-a gallon a week, so I’ve never looked too hard for ultra-pasteurized in the plastic containers.

        In technical contexts UHT refers to the packaging being sterile and airtight as well, whereas ultra-pasteurization is more specific to the product having been treated. In common usage they are the same and OP is indeed refering to the same cartons of milk commonly sold around the world.

      they usually state it on the carton if UPM, and i see mostly few brands that solely sell it. most other brands sell the pastuerized version.
