     <GASP!> Even the Pennsic milkchocomanna? The main reason people REALLY
 come to Pennsic? I load up the cooler with that luscious brown nectar before
 leaving site, and seldom have any left when I get home (OK, so it's a 30
 hour drive).The FIRST thing I do after getting past troll is to go and get a
 quart, then sit down under a tree and commune with the cocoa gods.
     Man, I wish I could get that stuff down here . . . Yoo Hoo just isn't
 the same.

    Huh--I haven't made it to Pennsic yet, but some friends who know just how 
big a chocoholic I am brought me back some a few years ago. I just wasn't 
impressed--it was way too wimpy a chocolate flavor for me! I like the spiced 
chocolate milk I came up with from that nearly-period chocolate treatise much 
better--it had a lot higher chocolate-to-milk ratio. The crowd at our event 
seemed happy with it, too.......... ;-) But I will grant that my dislike for 
plain sweet milk may be influencing me some, too--I need more adulterants to 
cover it's flavor than many folks do! 

            Ldy Diana, who *loves* buttermilk. Go figure!

Mild buttermilk is okay to drink though I probably wouldn't have a whole glass
of it.  It makes a really great ingredient in things, though.

As for Pennsic milk, I was more impressed by the plain milk than the chocolate
milk (though I was rather impressed by the chocolate milk).  I brought some
chocolate milk home for my parents and they weren't impressed at all.  My mom's
dad owned a dairy, and she thought it just tasted like real milk, nothing
special.  My dad grew up getting milk delivered in the glass bottle with the
foil cap and agreed that while it was better than store milk it was just real
milk, nothing special.
