What milk do the adults in your house drink?

[Houseplanter]

Assuming those of you with children buy full fat for them, what do the adults have and why?

I buy skimmed (cos I'm always on a diet and prefer it in tea) but I'm tempted to swap to semi skimmed.

We don't "drink" milk as such but have semi-skimmed for tea and porridge/cereal.

Semi skimmed for us all. I have a 4 and a 6 year old. I was delighted when I was able to stop buying different milks for them.

There's no way I'd drink that processed shit that is oat milk (or other fake milk). You can't milk an oat.

We all drink semi skimmed and always have. Including the children (all over 4).

Nobody in the house has actually drank milk since DD was about 10! We really just use it for cooking/coffees. Back then we used semi-skimmed but have since gradually made the switch to oat milk. It’s been years since I bought ‘real’ milk now - we don’t miss it whatsoever

Same. I tolerate semi at work as they only provide that and skimmed but much prefer full fat.

The whole family, kids included have semi skimmed. Whole is horrible and skimmed is just water.

Anyone who drinks cows milk is contributing to this. The cow is artificially inseminated and then once they've had the baby, the baby is removed and both mother and baby cry out for each other for days. The baby has to drink formula so that the humans can take the milk. Then the cow is killed. The whole thing is pretty fucked up if you really think about it.

Semi skimmed. Always had it as a kid and now everything else tastes weird. Tbh in coffee I’m happy with full fat but I don’t like it in tea.

BOB , semi skinned but less fat , no one drinks glasses of milk but this is what we use on cereal and in tea etc .

I only like skimmed in coffee. Hate full fat.

Otherwise we all drink oat/almond.

We only buy the cheap supermarket whole milk or asy Aussie DH calls it, full cream milk

Great for coffee and the kids love to drink it and pour it on their cereal.

Semi skimmed. Can't see the point of skimmed, always seems like white water to me.

Full fat, but I only use it in a latte each morning. DH and DC use it in cereal, I usually have yoghurt.

Full-fat, but mostly for cooking.

My DC all drink full fat. Eldest 17 and is a stick insect. I encourage him to drink at least two glasses a day.

13yo also very thin and drinks only full fat milk.

8yo is average build and drink loads of full fat milk. 6yo thin drinks very little milk. Has full fat milk in his porridge oats.

DH and I both drink semi skimmed milk.

Semi skinned for all once dc past 2 years.

I only have the fake crap, and I admit that's what it is, on my cereal. Can't have the proper stuff unfortunately or else it would be full fat.

Unless you are drinking gallons of the stuff, the difference between semi-skimmed and skimmed is negligible tbh. 12 more calories in 100ml of semi-skimmed than skimmed.

Semi. Kids don't need full fat either.

Semi skimmed

Day has it in cofeee

DC occasionally have cereal with it

I never have milk

Low milk consumption all round

It doesn't have to be processed. Apparently it's quite easy to make your own (or from cashews etc) if you can be arsed.

I must admit I haven't tried soy milk or oat milk so can't say I don't like it. It's purely habit buying dairy milk at the supermarket.

Semi, just think it's nicest. That's probably because it was what we had when I was growing up.
