Have any of you been able to get powdered WHOLE milk? I can only find semi-skimmed or skimmed which won't be good for making cheese.

Wouldn't the shelf life for the full cream powdered milk be shorter than for the skimmed/low fat one? I know full cream milk goes bad quicker than skimmed because of the fat content, seems logical that there's something similar for powdered milk?
