My DH loves to pour the chocolate milk straight into the ice cream maker and add various goodies. You can see the cows in the milking parlor from inside the store. There is another dairy whose milk is even richer (think icebergs of cream) but they are too far to get to regularly. Luckily the milk is sold at the little store run by the folks we buy our grass fed meat from. And don't get me started on the butter. All this yumminess and no weight gain is possible with portion control.
