You're probably joking, but just in case, that percentage is milk fat. Whipping cream is usually around 33%.

I wasn't joking, but wasn't very clear. I meant isn't homogenized milk 3.25 % (fat content) milk?

I could have sworn growing up homogenized was always 3.25 % in the red cartons/bags (still is, but not sure if it says homogenized and not just 3.25%). I see this brand all the time, but can't remember if it says Homo or not.

Thanks for posting though.

Edit: I'll check the bags I have later today when I get the chance (the kid likes 3.25, I stick to 1%).

Oh, yeah. Homo is the same as "whole" milk which is typically 3.25% m.f.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Ah, okay. I also checked the bags I have and they say 3.25 % m.f. homogenized milk.

Thinking of it, I don't think I've ever tried it straight up. Maybe I'll do that sometime.
