Jan 11 is National Milk Day in the United States, a day to commemorate the country's first milk deliveries in glass bottles on January 11, 1878.
Please don't confuse it with World Milk Day on June 1, though.
We will get there in less than five months - I promise you.
Did you know?
The United States and Australia are the world's largest exporters of milk and milk products.
On average, a cow produces 6.3 gallons of milk each day. That is about 24 liters.
The milk we drink daily is usually in the 250ml paper package. You do the math.
