We have whole milk, 2% 1% and skim. 1% is most likely nearest to what you call semi-skimmed.

If you're used to organic, be prepared to pay through the nose for it over here.... It's almost twice the price as regular milk.

No, it's 3.25% milk fat or butter fat. 100% milk though!

Well yes, that's what you start with given the average cow. But the Iranians have clever centrifuges and other war-like instruments of the devil which they can use to upgrade the milk to weapons grade clotted cream.

This is the future we face if Mr. Harper doesn't do something about it toute suite.

Ah, the bags, you'll be wanting the two and half micron bags. Otherwise you're into spillage issues.
