And you can also buy low fat coconut milk. At least at my supermarket you can.
I didn't think milk is really that bad for your weight? Usually it's cheese that's causing the problem.
Sorry I think I meant Brea was talking about the weight thing but your post must have been nearer

It's made me curious now whether I am talking nonsense or not. Isn't it amazing what you can find on the internet - what did we all do before??
This has all the fat contents of various milks. Coconut does rank pretty high
Milk | Irish Health Focus | Vhi
But when I was looking there was all sorts of stuff about the other health benefits, and what kind of fat it was that was bad, and all the other rubbish that is found in cows' milk and so on.
Personally, I think everything in moderation is fine (especially those toblerone brownies i made at the weekend )
