The couple being profiled adopt children, so they are buying food for 11 people. In context, 12 gallons of milk per week is a little over a pint per day per person, which is not unusual if you drink a glass per person per day and use some for cooking throughout the week.
It continues to amuse me that the whole reason we are currently performing this leftist experiment is because it was supposed to increase our material standard of living, and now that leftism is demonstrably responsible for its decline we are being criticized for living decadently for wanting something as basic as a glass of milk per day. My great-grandparents who were poor subsistence farmers were able to provide that.
This CNN Profile intentionally chooses this family to profile because at a passing glance, 12 gallons seems like a lot. It's perfect for Twitter shit-takes, and in the trending, Twitter included a summary mocking the family for 12 gallons of milk per week. So all you have is a bunch of retards posting reaction gifs while smugly complaining about American wastefulness... Even though those same retards are just as guilty of overindulging in shit if not more so.
When Japanese cars became more popular during the 1980s, it came with the myth that North American workers were "lazy" and "greedy" ... for wanting basic worker's protections and a living wage. That myth helped usher in the original Free Trade Agreement, which led to the beginning of foreign outsourcing and the subsequent shift to moving manufacturing to Asia.
When I visited Greece in 1992 (before the Euro and EU were things, and they still used the Drachma), the people were fairly happy and, while I thought it was a bit ... quaint .. they didn't seem "poor". BUT there were a lot of beggars on the street, mostly old or disabled, selling things like pens and lighters and such (I got berated for buying off an Armenian because I didn't know the difference ....) because they had no welfare system. So then later I hear about "lazy greedy" Greeks, but also see that they're expected to host swarms of invaders in four-fucking-star hotels (IOW, the welfare that came with the EU was never meant for Greeks!)
So now we're lazy and greedy because bread and milk and beef cost too much. But oh, don't talk about the African beef industry .... see: Botswana
Of course, but it's always fun to see what new ways they find to do so. Calling things like ground beef and milk "luxury food items" is something I never would have expected from Our Betters. Maybe we'll see them literally tell us to "eat cake instead" if bread starts to get expensive.
In which I consider that the price of staple foods would go down immensely if there were thirty or forty million less useless eaters on this continent.

Keto implies meat of some sort, which is also becoming expensive. Decadent and b&.
I'm sure mealworms and roaches are keto.

The elites are mocking the people they claim to represent, don't we know this?

So, America has become Canada.
