I don’t do it often, but sometimes I just get this strong craving for a cold glass of milk. Usually I just drink water or green tea.

That’s fair, I had that same crave as a kid. But probably since high school I just lost the crave.

Whole milk or skim?? I feel like a glass of whole milk is just unnecessary

My family usually has 2% milk. Whole milk would be too much!

Buy a Fairlife Whole (red bottle) and your mind will be changed.

I drink milk because of the protein content. It’s a good serving in an 8oz glass (8g in regular milk, 13g in Fairlife). I have a malabsorption issue and protein in liquid form is easier to ingest. 90g of protein a day is what I am supposed to consume. Milk is an easy way to get a good part of it in 150 calories (and the fats help with vitamin absorption too).
