fat free

Like skim milk

Fat free describes food containing no fat or, per labeling regulations, negligible amounts (typically less than 0.5 grams per serving).

The term appears on packaging as a health claim: fat-free yogurt, fat-free salad dressing.

Often hyphenated when preceding a noun.

Fat-free products sometimes compensate with added sugar.
