  Homogenization doesn’t skim the fat. It breaks the fat globules up into very small particles that form a stable emulsion that doesn’t separate. All they do is pass it through a high pressure nozzle.

    True, but generally they ALSO skim the fat right before/during. You don’t have to though

      Have you ever heard of “whole milk”?

        “whole milk” is often skimmed, or occasionally, added to to make it fit in a certain legally defined bandwidth of fat content. It’s not unmodified.

        Also, homogenization absolutely changes the texture of the milk. That is in fact part of the point, making sure nobody gets the crappy milk. Some people prefer it, some don’t, it’s a personal taste thing.

        Whole milk doesn’t mean “100% milk fat”. I believe it’s something like 3.25%.

      Be nice to skimmed milk drinking cryptids. They happily subsist on the waste product of butter making and reduce competing demand for the full-fat milk product you enjoy.

        We could use the skim milk for flushing toilets and washing cars. We needn’t shackle ourselves to these mutants forever.

        I was raised on skim milk, thanks to a mother who was constantly dieting throughout my childhood. 2% milk tastes like liquid ice cream to me. Skim is much more refreshing.

        Also, it was fun to freak out my friends by hydrating with milk after exercising. Skim milk is mostly water anyway.

  The term that people should look out for is “creamline” or “cream-top” milk. It’s whole milk that is unhomogenized. It basically separates in the bottle, so there’s a layer of cream floating on top of skim.

  I couldn’t say for sure, but I’ve heard it’s better for making cheese/yogurt/etc.

  Personally, I wouldn’t buy it just for drinking cause I don’t think it lasts as long.
