Origin
Whole milk, also known as full-fat milk or regular milk, comes from cows. It is an animal-based product that has been consumed by humans for thousands of years. The exact origin of whole milk can be traced back to the domestication of cows, which is believed to have occurred around 10,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent region of the Middle East.\n\nAs humans started to domesticate cows, they realized that milk could be a valuable source of nutrition. Whole milk is obtained by milking cows and contains a higher percentage of fat compared to other types of milk. It is called \"whole\" because it has not undergone any processing to remove or reduce the fat content.\n\nOver time, the consumption of whole milk spread to different parts of the world as agriculture and animal husbandry practices developed. Today, whole milk is produced and consumed in various countries globally, with different breeds of cows and farming methods influencing the taste and quality of the milk.
