    Whole and filtered. I go through 0.75l a day atm but I've just been informed it may be inhibiting my immune system through having antibiotics. Now I ain't fact-checked it but I'm trying all manner of juju shit in my battle against Covid so why tf not. Once I'm through the remaining stock in the fridge I'll go on a break.

    Isn’t there loads of estrogen in milk? Might explain why you’ve turned into a fanny.

    (I love you and the above is fake news)

    Also, skimmed is 0.3% or less.

    It's just water with milk powder added.

    Skimmed is for dull women, and full fat is for children and the simple.

    I buy semi-skimmed, but when you get it out and about they tend to give you full fat. It's all good except for skimmed.

    We have milk (blue), low-fat milk (green), and then there's a load of wastes of time in pink and red packaging.

    The skimmed/semi-skimmed naming started to creep in a few years ago but has mostly gone as quick as it came.

    There's also one which I saw advertised as being yellow top but claimed to have "all the flavour of skimmed" which is about as appealing as if they just said they'd flobbed in every bottle.

    I've always thought that gold top sounds wrong. It's pretty much single cream, no?

    I think it's partway between full fat and single cream.

    Above whole milk, they have the percentages all wonky heres. There’s really no mass-produced equivalent to single and double cream. You’ll find them, of course, but they’re usually from smaller producers.

    We have “whipping cream,” which is 35%, and then half-and-half, which is somewhere between 10-12%.

    I think single is 18% and double is closer to 50% in the UK, no?

    Non-dairy milk is - on the whole - utter shit, but oat is the best of a bad bunch.

    Gold top.

    I don't get the point in bothering with semi-skimmed and skimmed can fuck right off, just dye water white if that's what you're after you daft shite.

    Depends what you're doing with it. For coffee, soya (sweetener), almond (same), and oat are the best.

    Smoothies you can go for the other ones.

    With cereal they're all awful.

    Whatever this one is, no idea what my preference would be, it's whatever my parents used to get. I think it's whole milk?

    Here I've been having 1% and it's still pretty good. Back in the UK I was a semi-skimmed man as I agree with Jimmy's views.

    For my smoothies though I go for Almond as it makes it so creamy without the calories

    I put skimmed in my tea, on the odd occasion I don’t have green/rooibos.

    I don’t drink milk because it’s horrendous.

    I read somewhere once that some large percentage of Britons has only ever tried instant coffee (in terms of coffee). If that's the only "coffee" most residents of an entire nation have tried, then it's no wonder why they prefer hot flower water

    80% according to this https://www.ceutagroup.com/the-coffee-market-in-2019/



    CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR
    In the UK, people drink 95 million cups of coffee per day – an increase of 25 million over the last ten years, according to the Centre for Economics and Business Research. 65% is drunk at home, 25% at work or while studying, and the rest is consumed in shops, bars and restaurants.

    While 80% of UK households prefer to buy instant coffee for in-home consumption, particularly those aged 65 and older, roast and ground coffee, and single-serve coffee pods are becoming increasingly popular, particularly amongst Millennials who account for 16% of all buyers (British Coffee Association).

    On the high street, café culture continues to boom, 80% of people who visit coffee shops do so at least once a week, whilst 16% of us visit on a daily basis.

    A challenge for brands, according to the British Coffee Association (BCA) is tapping into the younger end of the market, who are turning away from instant coffee, saying “long term growth in the market will very much depend upon how coffee brands can make coffee drinking appealing to a younger audience”.

    Globally, The Netherlands tops the list of global coffee consuming countries followed by Finland, Canada and Sweden (Statista).

    Instant coffee is a no brainer. Weeks of caffeine boosting pleasure in a jar for four quid (or seven quid, if you're fancy).

    'Proper' coffee may be of superior quality but it's expensive and a faff to make.

    A moka espresso is probably the middle ground. The tins are pretty cheap, the moka is pretty brainless to use, and while there is cleanup, it’s pretty minimal.

    Instant coffee is absolutely disgusting. Buy a french press from IKEA for $15 and it’s genuinely no more of a pain to make than tea
