So this morning I'm sipping my tea. According to the long life milk carton, I'm drinking pure milk. 100% milk. From a cow. Or at least I assume that what the cow picture on the carton implies. Well, try telling my taste buds that. Because this morning they're having a seriously tough time believing that this white toxic waste that is now violating their innocence, once resided in the udder of a cow.
That's because it probably never did.
Long life milk is actually imported from a lemon-shaped planet far far away, delivered to your local supermarket by a navigationally impaired sewer rat named Merv. Just like we raise our children on breast milk, the milking machines that reign here raise their robot babies on UHT processed limestone.

And whenever a carton of their finest reaches its expiry date, well let's just call in Merv the courier guy and have him drop off a package on a planet far far away known as Earth.
More tea?
