Poll: 1/2% milk? - CA - yes - CLICK HERE for the Cooking Forum Index
Henry
I have been drinking 1% milk for such a long time that now it tastes too
rich to me. Plus, I'd like to cut my cholesterol. But I hate non-fat
milk. I think 1/2% milk would be a good compromise, but in my state
they don't sell it. I think it takes an act by the legislature to allow
it. So, I am taking a poll, only for those who presently drink 1% milk.

The question: If you now drink 1% milk, and 1/2% (half-percent milkfat)
milk became available, would you try it?

Please put your two-letter state abbreviation, and your yes or no
answer, in the subject line of your reply.

Why don't you just buy a jug of non-fat and one of 1% and mix them?
Using this system, you could drink 1/4% milk or 1/8% milk.

Personally, I believe that 9/11 should have taught us the lesson that we
can't let these countries simmer endlessly in disillusionment without
doing something about it because people become susceptible to delusional
ideas and delusional actions. Iraq, in my view, is but the first of many
efforts, certainly not all military, to remake the very face of the
world as constitutional representative democracy.

Two reasons I don't mix the milk:

The gallon bottles are much cheaper, yet I don't use it fast enough to
buy two at once.
I would like a product that is fully fortified with extra milk proteins
(as the 1% milk is), not half that level.

Well, you've got a point there about the cost. But as far as the protein
goes -- fortified milk has 10g protein per cup, unfortified has 8 g. If you
mix them equally, you'll have 9 g per cup. If you really want that extra 1
g of protein, just add a little more milk to your glass. Less than an ounce
will do it. And it'll help you use up those two gallons just a little
faster. :-)

.. . . but from a different point of view.

Non-fat dried milk is cheaper, for its size. I can use it in more places than
the liquid.

If there's Skim Milk on the shelf that is 1/2%. Skim Milk is not labeled 1/2%
but by Law (US) that is what it is.
