    I have 2 cartons of milk in the fridge, an Aldi full fat milk and a Tesco organic full fat milk. I was just looking at the nutritional info and calcium, protein etc. all pretty much the same but according to the info per 200ml Tesco milk has 74% RDA of Vit B12 whereas Aldi milk has 32% RDA. Is this a misprint on one of the cartons or what causes this difference?

    Edited to add the organic milk also lists B2 at 34% RDA and iodine at 43% RDA per 200ml whereas Aldi milk doesn't mention these.
