Have you heard about the newest Wokeism in Canada?

Ever since I was a little boy the whole milk in Canada was referred to and package as Homo milk. But that has changed - it is now packaged as 3.5%. So I guess people started  thinking it was offence to call it homo milk. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Homo is short for homogenized.

    It's been Homo milk here since I was little.  Does this mean that our forcing of our kids to drink their milk is what precipitated the current rise in ... uh ... "different people"?

    I don't think drinking Homo milk started the rise in 'different people' especially if that Homo milk comes from Albert (lot of rugged manly man cowboys in Alberta). I was just thinking I should  of saved a empty carton of homo milk so my Grandkids don't think I am a crazy when I tell them I used to drink Homo milk. Cheers and happy weekend!

    About a year ago I started getting a bit fat so I decided to go on a diet. I figured a good start would be to switch from Homo milk to 2% milk. I didn't like the 2% so I tried 3.5% figuring it was only 1.5% more fat than 2% so it would  still be more healthy than Homo milk so I kept buying it. Imagine my surprise when I found out last week that I have drinking Homo milk all along.  Cheers and happy weekend!
