I know it's milk and not chocolate, but I have to say this is one of the worst ads I've ever seen. 'Tastes so good, the cows want it back'. Sorry? 'The cows want it back'? What are they planning to do, squish it back up into their udders?!?!?

  I agree, and if you go in Asda they keep reading out a version of it over the speakers - something about a cow being in the dairy department.  (I wasn't really paying attention).

My favourite advert was one where they are saying something has more
calcium than cows milk, and they did it TV reporter style and they said
"any comment?" to the cow and she said "That's rubbish!"

They do 2 new varieties now. With a hint of vanilla or hint of strawberry, quite bland really.

Imagine accidentally pouring flavoured milk on your cornflakes.

That would be fine by me.  I like unusual flavour combinations!

Strawberry jam on french toast is fine.

In our Asda, by the side of the milk shelves, there's a button you can press and cows start mooing. It's the same next to the eggs. you press the button and hens start clucking. I can't resist pressing them even though I think they are meant for children

I always press the button next to the eggs.

That reminds me of a true story that happened to a friend of mine.  She was just about to go on stage during a show when she rushed off to answer a 'call of nature'.  The trouble was she forgot to turn off her radio mike.....
