Red top milk is in, and green top milk is out, according to Guernsey Dairy which has seen sales of full fat milk increase by 30% since 2019.

The dairy’s operations director Andrew Tabel, said the return in popularity of full fat milk saw sales rise from 568,000 litres in 2019 to just over 750,000 litres in 2025.

He added: “By contrast, low fat milk, which still accounts for the majority of our sales, has declined gradually, while skimmed milk has seen a more noticeable reduction, falling around 23% since 2019.”

Tesco has also reported a large rise in sales of full fat milk, but the British Heart Foundation has emphasised the high fat content.
