Best Answer

When the top layer of fat or cream is "skimmed" from whole milk (with the help of centrifugal force), the result is skim milk. Not only is it a mere 80-90 calories/cup (whole milk is 150 calories/cup), it still provides all the valuable nutrients of whole milk and is incredibly satisfying. Though the flavor is slightly different and the texture is thinner than whole milk, once you get used to it (try drinking a cold glass of it when you're really hot and thirsty) most people find the taste of whole milk too rich in comparison. In many brands of skim milk, the calcium content is actually higher than in whole milk.
