semi-skimmed milk

[Piemaster]

I been able to find lots of info on why I should put it in my tea, but....
what happens to the fat that is presumably removed from the milk? (and other 'low fat' dairy products for that matter)
Is it dumped? Put into pies at football matches? What?

I know not or care not. Full fat milk is horrible. There I've said it. Hope theclaud doesn't see that.

Doesn't matter, I saw it! And I'll draw it to her attention when she is next back at work on the forum!

Skimmed is horrible; semi-skimmed a pointless and tasteless compromise- why not have proper milk and use a bit less?

What is removed is the cream.

I agree. Can't stand full-fat milk. Don't particularly like semi-skimmed. It's been skimmed milk used at Chateau Wafflycat for over 20 years.

You sneak, I'll remember that...


..and the reason is it tastes, floatygreasyfatty and overpowering. I use yoghurt instead of cream, where possible, for the same reasons.

Yup. I'm in agreement. I *occasionally* like a wee bit of cream as part of a dessert, but full-fat milk is *horrible*

I had my morning coffee with skimmed the other day and it was far more flavourful.

Yuk Yuk Yuk! Why not just have it black?

In these enlightened times, I find it disheartening that you're both sooo prejudiced and lactose-intolerant!

Nooo, too bitter in the morning, needs something to remove the edge. Afternoon is OK though.

Drink black tea instead then - black Darjeeling is wonderful.

Full cream in tea is greasy and overpowering

I do drink black tea but I don't drink tea in the morning, I find coffee a bit smoother first thing.

Unsweetened Soya Milk where possible, otherwise skimmed
