Skimmed milk ...and evaporated milk ?

Question

I had gone to buy skimmed milk with the idea of trying it out as it contains the least amount of fat...But There were no "skimmed milk" available...but saw packets of "evaporated milk"...are they same ? Surprisingly these evaporated milk had no calory value printed on that...
any inputs on that ?
thanks and best wishes in advance...

Answer 1

Evaporated milk is milk that has had half of it's water removed. So ounce per ounce, it WILL have more calories that regular milk.

Evap milk comes in two varieties: a regular (full fat) and a skim variety (little fat). Sounds like your store was out of the skim variety. Even then, regular evap milk has less fat than, say, half and half if you use it to whiten yoru coffee.

If you are in the USA, nutrition facts are required to be on the label by Federal law.

Answer 2

Skimmed milk is better than the evaporated milk

Answer 3

skim milk has had all of the fat removed from it. evaporated milk is more concentrated because it has had a lot of the moisture removed from it so it is thicker but not necessarily fat free. there is, however, evaporated skim milk.

Answer 4

Have some taste pal drink full fat it's where the true flavour
of real milk is, just drink less of it if you're worried
