Who decided to drink MILK?

Question

did some body wayyyy back in the day just woke up and said " hmmmm I think im gonna drink that white thing that leeks out of cows" what a sick person! or eggs?!!

Answer 1

haha, humans produce milk too, you know. You drink it when you're a baby.

So I guess people assumed that they could drink cow's milk as well.

Answer 2

Milk is actually the cow's p**s that we're drinking...

Answer 3

The same thing can be said about almost every last thing we eat or drink. Including how we came up with some of the mixtures that we do.

As far as milk though. Humans produce milk for their infants too. Calf drink their mothers milk so what is so far off? Who knows if we decided to drink cows milk first or another animal? Some people drink goats milk but cows produce more.

Answer 4

well-what happend was--

there was this guy, a caveman [you know like the ones from the geico commercial]

this random caveman saw this cow--tipped it over..saw the utters--thought they were nipples [got horny] sucked them. got some milk. got stong bones and teeth. then--he saw this hen..and was like "woah! wtf is that one thing coming out of her @$$?" so...he went over there and stuffed the whole thing in his mouth. [not so smart] and he was bleeding..so--he spit it out. and he only like the egg white and yolk..so he made an omlet. and then the director yells "cut! good shot!" everyone gets paid, and goes home.

thats exactly what happend :]

Answer 5

I suspect thousands of years ago, when the cavemen-type killed any beast for food, and if it was female and recently had a baby, they discovered it contained the same milk that human babies drink from their moms.  Back then, when you didn't eat for days and days, any source of nourishment was used (and passed on to their children, who then did the same to their children).

Answer 6

Good question.  The cavemen discovered it by trial and error.
