I grew up on a farm and drank whole milk for a lot of years. Just can’t do skim milk.

One is better off drinking whole milk anyway considering how skim milk is "made." The myth that one shouldn't consume fat for good health is inaccurate. One needs fat in their diet for good health. It's just that there are healthy fats - coconut oil, avocados, fish to name a few - and unhealthy fats - those manufactured in labs (trans fats). Back when the gov't. wasn't pushing low fat foods and people were cooking with lard/Crisco, most people were thin and healthy. Now with all of the low fat foods most people are obese.

Obesity in America began in the year when low fat foods came on to market. It is not complicated. A diet with fats keeps your hunger in check. Low fat foods make you hungry quickly after. Chinese food anyone?
