glad to know that. I always buy whole milk but I was making lasagna
and thought I had everything I needed in the house. I didn't have
ricotta and a neighbor said she had an extra container. I didn't know
that whole milk made a difference. I couldn't remember that it had
been so bad before but I seldom make foods that require ricotta.
