Well It isn't for sale in 1 cup containers at my local Supermarkrt...nor
is the powdered Buttermilk readily availible...My idea of supper prep
isn't fight rush hour traffic across town to buy stuff then fight rush
hour back agian bfore cooking. So 2% had to do.

Now if it had been a shopping day...and I had pre planned the meal...it
woulda been different. But taking a pkg of chicken outa the freezer the
day before and pouring milk in the zippo bag then putting the chicken in
the fridge can't truly be called pre planning a meal.
