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.

Is my milk mislabled? It says 12 %
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%.

Must be from a Jersey Cow. We found they always gave the most cream in their milk. AND IT WAS GOOD TOO!
