It's a source of strength, life, sickness, disgust, delight and deep nausea. It's fraught with climate controversy and tensions over rights, care, state power, social democracy, misogyny and outrageous colonial history. Where did we learn that strong kids drink milk? Why is the Laughing Cow not laughing anymore? Why have neo-Nazis adopted it as a weird signifier of their racism? And what does the rise and rise of oat milk - with its cringe hipster tweevertising - tell us about late capitalism?

Also - why not join our Patreon? ONLY £4 A MONTH TO SUPPORT YR FAV CULTURAL HISTORIANS AND GET 20+ BONUS EPISODES AND A CURSED OBJECTS STICKER PACK!
