<<as a sidenote for precision's sake: we're talking about weighing
mililiters, that is very imprecise: when weighing one counts grams. 1 gram of milk
does not equal 1 mililiter of milk, that's only tru for water. Fat rich milk
will weight considerably less per mililiter than lowfat milk)>>
Can you give me more information about this? Perhaps this is something that
everyone knows except me.... Or point me to where I can find out about the
weight of fat heavy milk vs low fat milk? I'm assuming the same would hold
true for cow's milk -- so that a pint of heavy whipping cream would weigh less
than a pint of skim milk. I don't have any on hand so can't weigh it out,
but would love to know how much the differences would be.
I don't recall that Paula Meier made that sort of a differentiation in her
study that showed that 1 ml of human milk weighed 1 gm but perhaps I missed it.
