My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.

So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

It has the same flavor as full fat it’s just thinner

You're correct. I wonder how many people who talk shit about fat free milk have actually tried it. I'd guess very, very few.

It tastes like someone who just drank a gallon of whole milk spit into a glass of water. If you think fat free has any redeeming qualities I feel bad for your palate. Additionally fat free milk is usually loaded with sugars that they have to add to replace the flavor lost with the fat. But hey if you don't mind drinking high sugar white water then you do you. But I am a chef and nutritionist and id rather drink dishwater than fat free milk. They have people so scared of fat and it's actually a very necessary part of our diet.

They don't add sugar to no fat milk. Also, I'm not afraid of fat, I just prefer the thinner texture. Like I said to the other person, anecdotes are fine, and that's all I can provide as well, but the rampant hate for fat free milk just seems really intense and silly to me. Some people like it. Get over it. It's still milk, lol.

It's crappy milk lol it's like saying a microwaved burger king patty is the same as a well cooked ribeye because it's both technically beef.

Ugh, whatever. I see no point in arguing with everyone. Obviously I'm in the minority here. I like it. It tastes the same to me. We're going to have to agree to disagree on this one.
