Skim vs. Whole Milk - Another Lesson Prompted by My Daughters

On Friday afternoon when I picked up my youngest daughter from preschool she promptly informed me that she now only likes 2% milk and not whole milk. That was her reason of the day for not drinking milk. 

My daughter's proclamation reminded me of a lesson that I shared years ago before I even had children of my own. 

In the video below Brain Stuff explains the differences between skim, 1%, 2%, and whole milk. The process of creating skim milk is also included in the video.
