Growing up in the 60s/70s we always drank 2% milk. Skim looked watery and light blue back then..yuck. Then toward the later part of the 70s my mom started buying skim milk, and it was thinner, but wasn't blue, and didn't have a weird metallic taste like it did when I was younger. Now I can't tolerate any kind of milk except skim. It seems like cream to me. However, in coffee, I'd rather take it black then put in skim. I think it's too watery for coffee, and gives it an off taste.
For really bad tasting milk, I find the ultra pasteurized milk disgusting, It has a long shelf life, and to me, it tastes like it's been sitting on the shelf forever.
