Urgent! What kind of milk is the best choice?!


Question: Urgent! What kind of milk is the best choice!?
I'm about to go to a grocery store and buy milk!. Now, I love whole milk, but this time, I'm going to stick to low-fat milk!.

So my question is this: Is there a big difference between 1% and 2% low-fat milk!? In other words, should I give a damn on which of the two I'm deciding between!. I know there's a big difference between low-fat and whole, and a difference between low-fat and skim!. But what about 1% or 2%!?

Does it matter which of the two I choose!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Yes their is a big difference!. 1% milk tastes and looks like water!. My son gets WIC and you can only get 1% and I have tomix it with the 2% so he will drink it!. My husband ate a bowl of cereal and added the 1% MILK and told me "If I wanted to eat water with my cereal then I would have got it out of the faucet and not a milk carton!. 1% IS VERY NASTY, ITS NOT MILK ITS WATER!. GO WITH THE 2% MUCH BETTER!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

not unless your on a diet then go for the lower percentageWww@FoodAQ@Com

If you love whole milk stick with 2% its a little heavier than 1%Www@FoodAQ@Com

theirs a very very small difference so aether is goodWww@FoodAQ@Com

get number two it does not have a lot of fat and it taste better than number 1 and whole milk!. 1% taste just like water because it does not have a lot of fat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think 1% is the perfect milk!.!.!. it tastes far creamier than skim and is quite healthy!. However, coming off of whole milk it may not be creamy enough for you, so you might want to start with 2% and try to work your way to 1%!. I think they also sell milks that are low fat percentage but taste creamier than they are!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Whole milk is just under 4% fat

which makes 2% about half the fat of whole milk

1% is about a quarter of the fat of whole milkWww@FoodAQ@Com

2% milk contains about 3 grams of fat in 8-ounces, and 1% milk contains about 1!.5 grams!. I myself prefer the 1%!. I can't stand how watery the fat free milk is, so the 1% has a little "volume" to it!. It's great with cereal, and I have a 8 ounce glass for breakfast every morning, and I add about 4tbs!. of Ovaltine to it! You should try it, it's good and healthy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

one percent is like water, for proof, pour it into a glass then look around the liquid edge, looks like "slim" milk (not skim)!. Super see through! but 2 has taste but a little more fatty!.!.!. IT IS MILK JUST GET 2%!Www@FoodAQ@Com
