Wow! There IS a difference between nonfat and whole milk

[GRLMGC]

haha, I know there's a difference anyway but its never affected me till now. I don't like drinking plain milk. I'll eat it w/ cereal or in the form of other dairy products. I usually drink nonfat because I can't really tell the difference anyway. So today, I made some "creamy" sauce out of a mix that called for milk. I only had nonfat on hand and my sauce wasn't very creamy :(

1. Skim milk isn't milk IMO

It's blueish white water. I LOVE whole milk, but never buy it because it only lasts a few days before it spoils. I'm a 2%-er.

2. Have you tried soy milk for drinking?

It's worth a try. It's flavored and good for you.

7. Here's another one

Like you, I have milk on cereal, etc., but rarely in a glass. One day I found out ... very gradually ... that the milk had gone bad. Nothing tasted suspect when I would take a bite of the cereal, but it kept leaving an awful aftertaste. After several bites I began wondering what was wrong with the cereal, and well, this is where we get to the sad part. I had just gobbled down a bunch of sour milk and corn flakes. And that is the end of my sad story.

5. Do you think you're fat?

8. Skim milk quenches your thirst. Whole milk doesn't do that.

I grew up drinking skim milk. I would down a glass in literally 5 seconds. It still went down smooth.:)

10. It's all a matter of what you're accustomed to....

I gag on skim or no-fat milk - give me the whole milk variety, anything else tastes watery. Especially for cooking, there's a big difference... Half and half for coffee, it's the only thing that will do.

but then, I'm the butter queen of the world and I come by it honsetly (my grandfather was a dairyman).

Butterfat.... yummmm!!!

12. same hear, total dairy fanatic.

However, in this part of the world, there is a dairy chain called
Braum's. Ice cream store, hamburger stand and dairy grocery all rolled into one. THEY sell a fat free milk that actually tastes good. And it keeps because their stuff is so fresh. I have found that whole milk will keep longer than skim, and instead of buying a gallon jug, buy 2 of the 1/2 gallon size. for some reason, the milk will keep better.

But don't try to make me put anything less than half & half in my coffee; if I can't have good cream, then just give me tea.

must bake with real butter too. Accept no substitutes.

11. Veal crates are sooooooo cool!!!!!

By-product of the dairy industry. Don't take my word, Google it.

Just a PSA from your friend, flvegan.
