> Something about having the fat globules loose in there makes it taste richer, and gives it a different texture. You can also just mix skim milk and cream right before drinking. Tastes richer for a given fat content. (We started doing this when we had people who wanted skim, 1%, 2%, and whole all sharing a fridge. Though later we ended up with people only wanting whole and the small taste improvement wasn't worth the hassle of mixing anymore.)
