Cream
Cream is the fat that rises to the top of milk and is then removed. Cream is very high in kilocalories.
butter
When cream is churned, the fat comes together as butter. The liquid that runs off is called buttermilk. Butter is usually salted.

Dairy spreads such as Dairygold are a mixture of butter and vegetable oil; they contain roughly the same amount of fat but less cholesterol.
Polyunsaturated margarines such as Flora are very low in cholesterol and are a much healthier option.
Yoghurt
Yoghurt is a milk product made by adding souring lactic acid bacteria (which are harmless) to milk. Yoghurt has all the nutrients of milk. Low-fat varieties are available, while others sometimes have sugar added.
