None of those options fit my green-top semi-skimmed, because apparently that's not much of a thing wherever the person who made that poll happens to live (I'm guessing the US, based on terminology?).

... That said, I also technically don't have a refrigerator either - I use a tabletop electric cooler, thanks to my gf having stepped in & shipped it to me when my fridge-freezer decided to give up the ghost last midsummer, and why do you people insist on the word "refrigerator" when you abbreviate most everything else??

So... how 'bout the rest of you? Anything else that doesn't fit?

Hardly, since "milk" is today's poll and we have discussed them on this board (and not the "real poll(!)" board) before this. Get over it.

Would that be like 1% milk? While it is available in the US, it's less common than whole, 2%, and skim. In fact, I'd never even heard of it until some time in the 1990s.

We don't. Most of the time it's a fridge.

Not quite.

Whole milk is 3.6% here, about 3.25% in the US, and our semi-skimmed is about 1.5 to 1.8% (skimmed being 0.3%).

Semi-skimmed is the most popular kind of milk in the UK, actually, by a margin of about 36%. Most people I know find 1% & skimmed too thin-tasting to drink unless they're on a diet - only about 6% of Brits ever even buy skimmed milk in a given year - though why they taste so noticeably different - and to me they do - I really couldn't say.

Hmm, I never seem to see that in writing from people in North America, but good to know, I guess.

It may be different when it comes to writing (unless writing quotes or something similar). But we definitely call it fridge most of the time.

I sometimes trade my neighbor eggs for goat milk. So unpasteurized is a missing option.

Yeah, like Link said you probably aren't going to see it in advertisements, those would use the full term. With the litigious nature of our society, anything official will usually be specific to an extreme. In conversation you're far more likely to hear something like, "stick that [item] in the fridge." Or depending on the area you might hear icebox, but at this point that's probably more common as a reference to a freezer, or the freezer section of a combo unit.

I buy 3.2%, according to posts here its what would be called whole milk. I add it to my grain coffee and sometimes just drink it cold when I feel like it.

Funny how the thought of swigging from a bottle of human breast milk straight out the fridge -- you know, the stuff that's actually meant for consumption by humans -- feels a bit icky, yet drinking the milk of a totally unrelated species seems perfectly natural...

I actually cut down on milk now, used to drink a gallon a week but lately I stopped doing that and then it would get old so I switched to getting a couple of canned milk, good enough for coffee and cereal every other day or so.
