Australians are shifting back to full-cream milk and avoiding its skinny cousin.
Dairy Australia managing director Ian Halliday said sales of full-fat milk have jumped nine per cent during the past 12 to 18 months, while low- and modified-fat milk sales have fallen about six per cent in the same period.
"We are seeing on a global basis a move back towards full-fat dairy products," Mr Halliday told a Senate estimates hearing on Wednesday, pointing to new research showing the health benefits of dairy.
