Seems like it may be a labeling error. Fat at 12% would be half-and-half, not whole milk.

And calories from fat in whole milk would be around 50%, not 12%.

***********************************************************************

The whole chocolate milk I have is labeled 13%. I don’t have any Half & Half on hand but if I remember correctly, it’s labeled 23%..

It sounds as if the dairy industry may be pulling the same stunt as small engine manufactures did in the past, vastly over stating horse power ratings for their products. A 6 h.p. engine being actually a 2.5 h.p.

They were stopped by the fed. gov. and now just state the size of their engines in cubic centimeters.
