Product Description

Low fat milk, also called skim milk, is cow milk from which most of the fat content has been removed. It tends to be thinner and has a less rich taste, although it is used in a variety of products. The name skim milk is less in use because the process to produce non-fat milk is now highly mechanized.

In earlier times, when cows were milked, most fat solids rose to the top, producing cream. This top layer would be skimmed off and used to make butter, though some fat solids would still exist in the milk. Defatting milk and producing non-fat milk and low fat milk began to grown in popularity in the 1950s. In addition to non-fat milk, people can now buy 1% or 2% milk, which tends to taste more like whole milk.

When cows are first milked, especially on large dairy farms, milk is sent through a separator or a clarifier. A clarifier removes debris from the milk, and a separator removes debris and separates the milk into weights. This process creates both cream and low fat milk. Milk, unless it is raw, is then pasteurized (heated) to kill any bad bacteria. Most milk in the US is also fortified with Vitamin D.
