AIIEEEE! Milk facts run wild! What do you drink or use?
First off, I hit new topic instead of reply...(d'oh)
Regarding milk...
OK, let's quit throwing around numbers and find some facts...
After looking around, it appears as though whole milk, by definition, has about 3.25% fat per serving, or 8 grams. Here's the clip from the FDA.
Quote:
Whole milk normally contains 3.25 percent milkfat or 8 grams of fat per serving.
I looked at different manufacturers and have seen percentages from 3.2 - 3.9%.
So, if whole milk is 3.25%, what is the percentage difference between that and 2%? It's 38.25%.
Whew? Are we done yet? I need a drink... of milk (non-fat of course, with a big chunk of warm chocolate cake - no icing).
