Is it safe to order fresh milk and dairy online?

What is the difference between perishable and non-perishable groceries?

Perishable groceries are items that spoil quickly and require refrigeration or careful handling — like milk, eggs, fresh produce, and dairy products. Non-perishable groceries have a much longer shelf life and can be stored at room temperature — like dry spices, lentils, rice, flour, and canned goods. Velspices stocks both categories comprehensively.
