The Age-Old Milk Debacle

Let’s dive into a milk revelation courtesy of Chris, the seasoned waiter. Brace yourselves because the truth about milk in restaurants might just leave you with a latte to ponder. Chris spills the beans that what’s labeled as skim milk often falls short of its true “skim” status. And, as for finding a lineup of whole milk, 2%, skim, and half-and-half in most restaurants, well, don’t hold your breath.

Starbucks, he notes, stands as a rare exception, but here’s the inside scoop: some eateries find this comprehensive milk selection more of a hassle than it’s worth. So, if you’re particular about your milk choices, you might want to reconsider your morning coffee routine on your next dining-out adventure.
