2% milk has half the fat of whole milk.

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

Just looked at a gallon of whole milk and it contains “total fat 12% - saturated fat 25% of all fat”.

I drink whole milk, occasionally I buy Half & Half but at $4 per half gal. it’s a bit expensive.

Standard resources, including technical chemistry ones, list whole milk as less than 4% total fat. The percent of total calories in milk that come from the fat is higher.
