low-fat milk
Lighter dairy beverage
Low-fat milk is milk with most of its fat removed, typically containing 1% milkfat by weight.
It occupies the middle ground between whole milk and skim milk, offering a compromise for those who want reduced fat without sacrificing all the richness: I switched to low-fat milk years ago.
Also called reduced-fat milk.
