WHAT GOES ON CORN FLAKES?


one of the most successful advertising campaigns in history was the
 
you guessed it
 
the got milk? campaign produced by the california milk producers advisory board
 
they also use the tagline milk. it does a body good.
 
but that's obvious
 
well it's not all milk and cookies lately
 
there's big trouble a brewin'

and it's coming from another big california product
 
almonds
 
yes somehow almond (as well as other nutters)
 
have found a way to milk an almond
 
and they've found that people will actually buy it
 
well, the milkmen are pissed and they are going to court
 
they want a legal definition of the word milk
 
so the nut guys can't use that word on their labels
 
but nut juice has shown in various focus groups
 
to have a negative connotation and they want the word milk
 
the battle rages on in courts across the land
 
meantime the dairy cows
 
fearing they may have some trouble in the future
 
have elected to utterly cut production by over 50%
 
this has opened up a whole 'nother industry
 
seems some mothers are now milking themselves
 
saving storing and offering their milk for sale
 
organic... yes tasty... yes convenient... oh yeah
 
sounds nuts
 
but that's how this whole thing got started
