DALLAS, Sept. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- If you're searching for a chillingly tasty treat to serve your little ghosts and goblins this Halloween, look no further than Limited Edition TruMoo Orange Scream milk.  Inspired by an orange frozen pop with vanilla ice cream, this new creamy orange milk is so frightfully delicious, it's sure to make you scream.

Like regular TruMoo, the nation's leading ready-to-serve refrigerated chocolate milk brand*, TruMoo Orange Scream is made with wholesome low-fat white milk and is brought to you by your trusted local TruMoo dairy. And with no artificial growth hormones or high fructose corn syrup, you'll be happy when it puts a spell on you and your family.
