Following a successful Kickstarter campaign, Slate is making waves in the industry by offering a better-for-you, higher protein, lower sugar, lactose free, gluten free, soy/nut/carrageenan free, shelf-stable chocolate milk in two flavors: classic and dark. So...how do they taste? And is "chocolate milk in a can" as rare as it sounds? Find out here!
My first visit to Michigan's Upper Peninsula was overwhelmingly positive (thanks of course to DeBacker Family Dairy) and marred only by some self-imposed audio issues in trying out a new mic setup. If it's true that "what happens in the U.P. stays in the U.P."-- then I egregiously violated that rule by transporting tons of delicious DeBacker's chocolate milk back to afoolzerrand.com HQ in Chicago. And I hope to do it again soon!
What does delicious chocolate milk, dog snot, and authentic cow poop have in common-- well, at the very least, they're all in this video. From Kaleva, to Traverse City, to Kalkaska, to Hersey, to Big Rapids-- we cover a good chunk of the Mitten State and find some of the very best chocolate milk available today! And there's lots more to come.
Have you tried every chocolate milk the US has to offer? Neither have I (yet), but this is a significant step toward achieving that goal! Years of commitment to the chocolate milk grind has helped me build the first ever chocolate milk map-- which will help connect people to their local dairies and provide a nearly endless source of chocolate milk novelty. This is the map you didn't know you needed!
Well, it's not always glamorous, but someone's gotta do it. Live Real Farms (Dairy Farmers of America) have come out with a 50-50 blend of cow milk with almond milk, infused it with chocolate, and put it out on store shelves expecting people to buy it. So how does it compare with normal chocolate milk?
North Carolina brings the heat when it comes to delicious local chocolate milk-- there's lots to go around, and I do my best to pay homage to some of the very best the state has to offer. Whether you like it thick & sweet, dark & brooding, or somewhere in between-- the Tar Heel State has you covered!
Well it took all of 7 months to capture and review the last 100 chocolate milks— and while the pace may be slowing, the desire is burning hot as ever. Maybe I should get that checked out..
A steep and serpentine drive from Morgantown to Mt. Crawford yields a couple local chocolate milks, including only the second raw chocolate milk I've ever tried. Lastly, we sip some of Homestead Creamery's intriguing 'Golden Milk' for a change of pace after several straight weeks on the chocolate milk grind!
Central PA may very well be home to the most delicious chocolate goat milk on the planet-- at least that I have tried thus far (and I doubt anyone has had more) and one of the coolest dairy farms you'll ever come across! We also visit The Reedsville Creamery for some truly transcendent goodness, then head southwest to Somerset's Moo Echo Dairy, before finishing up the day with local favorite Jackson Farms chocolate milk.
Lancaster County is home to a seemingly unending supply of chocolate milk-- even the hardware stores carry it! Join me as we go store hopping in Bird-in-Hand, and then down to local favorite Pine View Dairy (my first visit, but definitely not my last) for what else-- chocolate milk, ice cream, and beautiful baby cows.
