In my opinion, drinking nonfat milk is a strong indicator that you're willing to follow dietary advice even if it's unpleasant. I can't stand the stuff.

Same here. Low-fat/nonfat milk tastes of nothing. I'd rather drink water. I found it works best to hydrate with actual water (ie. drink enough water to never feel thirst) and then if I want the taste, I'll just have a glass of full fat milk.

Water hydrates the best.

Milk (even skim) has proteins. So its not just hydration.

Or it's a symptom of what you were given as a child. I find 1% bearable, but don't like it. Cannot stand 2% or whole milk.
