Skim Milk Top Journals

Historically, skim milk was used for fattening pigs, and was recommended as "Not only the absolute best supplement for growing pigs, but is of just about equal value for fattening purposes" because it "furnishes an entire protein" and makes the feed "more palatable". In the UK, milk is traditionally marketed and labelled as follows: • Whole milk (around 3.5–4% fat) – litre bottles marketed in blue packaging are often found in shops. • Semi-skimmed milk (around 1.8% fat) – Plastic liter bottles are marketed in green packaging. • Skimmed milk (around 0.1% fat) – Plastic liter bottles are marketed in red packaging. • Channel Island milk (around 5–5.5% fat) Before the 1980s, milk was delivered on the doorsteps by a milkman within the early hours of the morning in glass pint bottles with the colour printed foil lid indicating the milk-fat content. Milk had plain silver foil, semi-skimmed milk had silver foil with red stripes and skim milk silver foil with a blue checker pattern. Additionally, some supermarkets within the UK now market milk as: 1% fat milk - Normally sold in purple or orange packaging. In the US , milk is marketed primarily by fat content and available in these varieties: • Whole milk is 3.5% fat • 2% Reduced-fat milk • 1% Low-fat milk • 0% Non-fat milk (also called skimmed milk or fat-free milk)
