He did mention to try the chocolate there too so the next week I put 2 and 2 together and got the chocolate milk. It tasted like butt. My guess is that they don't jack it up with as much sugar as they do here.
Long story short you can tell the difference in milk, internationally

British milk is, traditionally, just pasteurized, not homogenized, as such it's heavy in milk fat, so much so that you get a layer of cream on the top of the bottle when you open it, which, as a kid, you steal if your mum isn't looking.
These days you get skimmed and semi skimmed milk that are their equivalent of 2% and skimmed here.
