Whole milk that filed for emotional and caloric divorce.
means Milk from which the cream has been removed, leaving a thin, low-fat (and low-flavor) liquid.
from A plain compound of "skim" and "milk." The verb "skim" comes from Old French "escumer," to remove scum or foam, itself rooted in a Germanic word for froth (a cousin of "scum"). Before homogenization, fresh milk left to stand would let its cream rise to the top, where a dairyman could literally skim it off with a ladle or skimmer — the richest part lifted away, the watery remainder left behind to carry the name.
