Bacteria feeds on the lactose in milk. Lactose is a sugar found in milk. To protect the milk from bacteria growth, just make sure the milk isn't exposed to air. An unopened jug of milk left out on the counter overnight should be safe, but it gives me the willies to even think about it!

Where does the acid that causes tooth decay come from and how can you prevent it?

Bacteria that populate the mouth metabolize simple carbohydrates (sugar) and produce the acid that causes tooth decay. Reducing the bacteria by effective and frequent brushing and flossing can reduce tooth decay. Limiting intake of sugar will also reduce decay. There is also a growing body of research that indicates xylitol as a sugar substitute may also be effective in reducing tooth decay.
