And some people replied: "cold 1%" or "cold 2%".
What does this mean?
(Does "cold 0%" mean iced"?)
Answers: Some days ago, I asked if people prefered milk to be warm, cold or natural.
And some people replied: "cold 1%" or "cold 2%".
What does this mean?
(Does "cold 0%" mean iced"?)
What they were referring to was the type of milk they like cold. Milk is sold in Skim, 1%, 2%, and Whole. The percentage is referring to how much butterfat is in the milk. When it is taken from the cow, milk contains on an average 5% butterfat. The milk is shipped to a dairy processing plant where the butterfat is removed (this is used to make things like butter and whipping cream) and this is called skimmed milk.The dairy then adds a certain portion of cream (butterfat) to the milk when it is homogenized (whipped up so the cream (butterfat) doesn't rise to the top anymore) depending on what kind of milk they want to package. They would add 2 parts of cream to every 100 parts of skimmed milk to get 2% milk.So when they were saying cold 1%, they were saying they like the 1%butterfat milk cold. Hope this helps you!
maybe warm, or even hot. cause cold 100% is iced, warm 100% is hot, so....
I would guess thats the percentage of milk fat they want.
