    I've seen white, brown, pink, and blue milk. I forget what the blue milk was supposed to be. I do remember not liking it...
    I think Denver has blue and orange milk for their beloved Broncos...but I have never been able to find it.

      Lingering Grin and EricKei, you might like the skim milk my store sells; it still tastes rich not watered down. My sister despises skim milk, but she likes to drink the skim milk my store sells. I personally prefer skim milk or 1%.

      Broomjockey-I could only hope that the milk was supposed to be blueberry, that went horribly wrong. You should try the vanilla milk we sell. It's also white (off-white?) and is great with cereal.

        Yellow Milk (to me) = Nestle's Banana Quik. Too bad so few stores carry it... it's a real pain to find.

          3. "I would like (random #) of white milk."
          As opposed to what? Gray, blue, pink? I don't know where you normally buy milk, but here it comes in whole, 2% and skim.
          When I was a kid, I only drank green milk, which was white. The brand my parents bought had a green lid, and since I couldn't remember which brand/name it was, I just called it green.

            1. "I want two vanilla."
            Really? If the two vanilla are the same, then there are at least two dozen possibilities that the dairy store could sell you. If you want me to choose, I'll gladly sell you the most expensive item. It would easily set you back $100.
            Okay, curious: what is so expensive?

                Slightly unrelated as it has nothing to do with milk, but I also hate it when people are unclear when they're trying to tell you something.

                Today I went in to a patient and she said she was in some pain, so I said to her, "Should I call the nurse so you can get some pain medication?" She just threw up her arms and said "Agggh". I took that as a no. How else should I take it?? Who does that?

                Half an hour later she comes in to the kitchen yelling "Where's my medicine?? Why haven't you called the nurse??" I got so annoyed with her I told her straight out that Agggh doesn't mean yes, and that she'd have to wait ten minutes while I called the nurse for her. Luckily she was in better humour after she got her medicine.

                But the whole thing was annoying, what's wrong with yes or no??
                It's been a long, long, long, long time...

                  My dairy store specializes in super premium ice cream (highest butter fat content) and non-rbgh milk which makes everything expensive. We sell our ice cream by the quart, normally. The next size up is a 3 gallon tub that easily costs $60.00 each.

                    Perhaps you went into her too fast.

                      Whole milk tastes too rich to me, but I'll drink it if it's with a meal just fine. I prefer 1% if I get a choice, but my hubby can't have milkfat (not that that's ever stopped him from eating ice cream and accepting that he'll be sick later) so we generally have skim around the house.

                      Flavored milks, though...blech. I can't stand them. I haven't liked chocolate milk since I first tried it at age 5 or so, and didn't like banana or strawberry when I tried it. The idea of vanilla, though, intrigues me. I may have to hunt some down and try it.

                      It's little things that make the difference between 'enjoyable', 'tolerable', and 'gimme a spoon, I'm digging an escape tunnel'.

                        Um... Vanilla in that context is the adjective. There's a noun missing, there, and that's just worse, really.

                        Oooh... That sounds taaaasty.

                        I don't drink homogenized milk, as a general rule. I prefer my milk fat molecules to be too large to be absorbed into my system. Much healthier that way.

                        Then again, nothing that is fully grown should ever be drinking milk, anyway. Not that that stops us.

                          That sounds like skim milk. And it's horrible stuff IMO . . . looks like blue water to me.

                              Andara Bledin - First: Oops , Thanks for pointing that out.
                              Second - I know my store's ice cream has biased me against all others. More fat = More deliciousness

                              Minor update:
                              I got another one just a few hours. The transaction was similar to the one in the OP (no clarity between 1 two scoop cone or two cones with 1 scoop each), except the d!ckface guy condescended: I told you three times that I wanted one two chocolate chip ice cream on a plain cone.
                              My reply: And you still haven't answered my question of whether you wanted just one cone or two cones.
                              He ended up wanting one cone. Much aggravation could have been avoided if he bothered to use his ears and brain to clarify my confusion over what he wanted
