                                Did you know that the fat content of raw milk, fresh from the cow, can naturally vary and sometimes reach as high as 5% depending on the breed and diet? This natural variation helps explain products labeled with **5% milkfat**, a concentration that indicates a richer, creamier dairy item than standard whole milk.
