Sweet fizzy milk from Coca ColaCOWS may not think it is the real thing but Coca-Cola is set to launch fizzy milk on the world. The drink contains skimmed milk mixed with sparking water, flavoured with fruit and sweetened with cane sugar. Scientists have developed the drink at the firm’s laboratories in Atlanta, Georgia, ensuring it will not curdle in its 8oz aluminium bottle. Going under the name Vio, Coca-Cola has begun test-marketing the carbonated drink at natural food stores and delis in New York It sells for about £1.50 a bottle, no chilling required. One of Coke’s copywriters claims it tastes “like a birthday party for a polar bear”.

bollocks- i invented fizzy milk in 1985; i filled a soda-stream bottle with milk and proceeded to get 'bizzy with the fizzy'...
5 minutes later my head was down the toilet and a valuable lesson had been learned.

Hmmm, we might have a patent issue here. ;D In about 1979-80 I was experimenting with Lemonade in milk. It Didn't work.  I was also the inventor of an even odderer combination of Ginger Beer and Worcestershire Sauce! Neither did that.  I'm sure someone - the makers of Irn Bru possibly - came out with fizzy milk in the early 90's - 'cos I can remember stocking briefly at my Newsagents. That was pretty horrid too. Trouble is you'll get kiddies drinking loads of it thinking it's healthy! There's no comparison for the original though - just ask any cow. |

I asked a Pommy bloke if you have Milo over there. It is a sort of malty cocoa thing that you stir into milk but no one does that. It gets et from the tin.
Anyway, he said you have HORLICKS.
No wonder you don't like milk, that is enough to put anyone off.

I'm pretty sure that we used to have Milo. It was a bit like Ovaltine. There was a drink that my did sometimes did that he called Milo - milk and orange squash. It was horrible.
Horlicks, on the other hand, is good stuff. There have been times when i've not been able to eat when I've lived on it.

Polar bears neither want or require your pity. But they wouldn't say no to a few chunky women if you have some knocking about.   Submarines are rubbish though, don't send any more of them.   AH |

Sounds disgusting but I can remember the only way I could drink milk was with half soda straight out the fridge. These days, I add three or four heaped teaspoons of something called Cola-Cao, chocolate and cola, to a half-pint mug straight out the fridge when I need to wake up. I haven't seen it on sale recently, so probably that's another thing removed for lack of demand because I demand it. A quick check tells me that it is of Spanish origin. That makes some sense because thick chocolate with bread dipped in is a traditional Spanish breakfast.
I remember when I used to make my shop muesli with watered PLJ and times I added garlic to morning water porage with salt & pepper. I've never quite understood this Anglo-Irish belief in facing a daunting meal of assorted hot meat and eggs to break the fast. I do understand it where it comes as a morning break (like traditionally Germany and France) after a first meal of light sweet bread, or Iceland, light savory bread with marinated lamb and fish (actually, I think I prefer the salt of savoury to the sweet of jam & marmelades). Maybe the attraction of the traditional Anglo-Irish fry-up as breakfast is either that it came more like a brunch after a light forgotten breakfast, or was a rarity for The Posh and on holiday.
