I thought skimmed was the water that was left over after you rinsed out a roller full of white emulsion
Innit. No point at all drinking that crap. Skimmed milk exists so that people can feel they are 'cutting down' on fats. Thing is, whole milk contains more vitamins and other nutrients, and the fats are metabolised/broken down more easily than fats in other foods. There's so much bullshit bout the 'benefits' of skimmed milk, but any decent nutritionist will tell you whole milk is the healthiest option. Cut down on other fats instead if you're that worried, or just bloody exercise more lazy bastards sit around watching shit on telly then drive to supermarket to buy loads of needless crap.
Skimmed milk ffs. Part of all this low fat this, low salt that, 'I'm too thick to work out what's a good diet so I'll pay snake oil merchants loads for stupid 'healthy bacteria' type shit in tiny bottles' bollocks.
And you pay the same price for skimmed milk for a fraction of the goodness. What a complete con.
