    What is the difference in taste of skimmed milked compared to semi-skimmed?

    Recently, the semi-skimmed milk has been tasting to sugary for some strange reason

    Stop adding sugar to your tea and that should solve the problem.

    The difference in taste between skimmed milk and semi-skimmed is roughly the same as the difference in taste between beef and horse

    I have never had sugar to my tea for like nearly 15-20 years now

    Skimmed is just coloured water. It's minging.

    Massive difference, semi-skimmed actually has flavour.

    My nan used to call skimmed milk 'Bull's Milk'. Horrible stuff.

    Skimmed milk is fine.

    A skimmed credit card leaves a really sour taste in one's mouth though.

    Less calories in skimmed milk but it's semi - skimmed I use


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    How much water they added to the milk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,329 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Low-life milk? No thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,166 ✭✭✭Beefy78


    I've moved into skimmed milk about six months ago as part of my attempts at losing weight. Tbh, after about a week you can't taste the difference.

    Skimmed milk is when the remove the fat from the milk. It's unbelieveable much fat is in a glass of milk

    If you switched to skimmed I kinda nasty at first but after a few weeks you can't tell the difference at all tbh. Unlike low fat cheddar cheese which is nasty

    Full fat milk is minging it's like wrapping your mouth directly around the cows udders :o

    Semi skimmed is the way to go.

    The fat content of full fat milk is pretty low in fact around 4% or less. What you get with the semi skimmed milk is just added water.

    There's more sugar than fat in milk.

    There's no water added to semi skimmed or skimmed milk. They have less cream.

    God I hate skimmed milk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭danslevent


    I always used skimmed milk. Though I do have crap taste buds. Once drank a cup of tea and didn't realise until the last drop that there was a weird taste....milk was gone off.

    After years of drinking skimmed milk, i can't drink full fat milk at all anymore. Too thick and creamy. Gross.

    I stand to be corrected and knowing me I'm probably wrong but I think skimmed milk has more calcium than semi or full fat.
    It tastes horrible at first but you get used to it.
