I don't know what to do....I even thought about trying Skim today.......

I have some water in my fridge, and that might quench my thirst, but I think that (if you guys tell me so) milk would be better. I just can't do it.......ya know......think.

What do you guys think I should do?

    If you're dieting or have cholesterol issues, get skim. Otherwise, whole milk taste better.

    Geez, RT, I know there are a lot of other options on brands of Rum.....that seems like a lot to go on before i have this monumental debate in my head settled....

    I was originally only asking for 2 options, but now it's up to like 7 and I've got a huge headache trying to think about this stuff.....

    How about this......you guys all agree on which I should drink and tell me and I'll do it. No more questions.......but you all have to agree on what recommendation to give me........ok guys?

    NO RUM.
    Vodka is the only replacement for milk on cereal.
    Did you mention cereal?
    I could scroll back up and see but that would be a total waste of my time.
    I will just ask you if you mentioned cereal.
    If you did not mention cereal then I would have to say that milk is not really what you want.
    1% vs 2% is actually a pretty moot question because the answers you seek are not to be found there.
    If you really want to get into hi end milk you need to go to the source.
    But I doubt you have the ability to get source fresh real hi-end milk so therefore you should just settle for canned milk.
    If you are too immature to handle this reality then I might just suggest formula. You can mix it as strong or weak as you like.
    Powdered milk is to drinking as bose is to hi-fi.

    Hear me now and listen to me later.

    i go back and forth between skim and 1%.

    I was raised on 2%.

    I can't stand anything over 2% anymore.. whole milk is to rich tasting to me. I can't drink it..

    try skim Brett. if you don't like bump up to 1%.

    or drink chocolate milk instead. ;)

    1% since I've gotten used to it I can barely tell the difference between it and 2%. Whole milk is like drinking a shake now that I'm used to the thinner stuff.
