My mate works on an organic dairy farm, only supplies to the local area, when you find their milk it’s noticeably nicer than supermarket. Cows are very well looked after too

Whole for me too, got fed up drinking flavourless stuff and I'm kinda past caring about fat intake (I don't eat badly, just don't stress over "low fat" crap).

I thought fat is good

Take out the fat and you just swap it for higher sugar, which is arguably worse.

Increasingly important for me. I love it when we go to Galloway and can lay our hands on the stuff where the herd has been well cared for.
Brutally honestly, I’m not sure it tastes better, but that isn’t what it’s about.

Coffee should be black, they should call coffee with milk 'coffee flavoured drink' or something.

I have a bit of almond with my cereal (blue diamond, we ran out and couldn't get hold of more for a week or so and I realised how disgusting some of the other ones are). No milk on anything else.

The daughter has semi-skimmed on her cereal though as is her preference.

Look at it this way "full fat" (stupid term) is 96% fat free!
