Full fat products are often healthier for us than the "imitation" of the product

Full fat products are often healthier for us than the "imitation" of the product. For example whole milk has ingredients that skim doesn't have and it's a good fat for our body. I have just read "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan. Amazing information.
Nothing wrong with a nice well marbled steak, just hold the potato.

You know, I do, too. I think our taste buds are often programmed to like these things. Fat of the land and all. I have found different ways to try to mimic that taste in cooking. And, no, I won't pretend it is exactly the SAME, cause it is not, but the dishes are very tasty. An ingredient that I use a LOT now is Greek yogurt. I use the Oikos brand. It's fat free and 120 calories per cup. I have always thought that plain yogurt is two parts disgusting and one part gross, but the things I have made using this my husband has raved about, and he hates all yogurt. There is a particularly tasty salmon and shrimp chowder, and some great mashed potatoes that come from this stuff (though my portion size of the latter just got a LOT smaller).
