History[edit | edit source]

Vi-Co was first introduced in the 1960s by the Saputo dairy company. The brand quickly gained popularity due to its unique taste and convenient packaging. Over the years, Vi-Co has become a staple in many Canadian households and is often associated with childhood memories.

Product[edit | edit source]

Vi-Co is a ready-to-drink chocolate milk that comes in a variety of sizes, including single-serve bottles and larger, family-sized containers. The product is made from real milk and cocoa, and is often praised for its rich, creamy taste. In addition to the original chocolate flavor, Vi-Co also offers a variety of other flavors, including strawberry and vanilla.

Production[edit | edit source]

The production of Vi-Co involves a process known as pasteurization, which is used to kill harmful bacteria and extend the product's shelf life. The milk is first heated to a high temperature and then quickly cooled before being mixed with cocoa and other ingredients. The mixture is then packaged and distributed to retailers across Canada.

Reception[edit | edit source]

Vi-Co has received positive reviews from consumers for its taste and quality. It is often compared favorably to other brands of chocolate milk and is considered a classic Canadian product.
