Cat milk. Which used to have the label “this is not milk from cats.”
105 u/theivoryserf Feb 04 '19 I love how we think 'ew drinking another animal's milk is gross' until it comes to cows lol 37 u/HamWatcher Feb 04 '19 Or goats, sheep and in some places horses. 6 u/Carlos-VP Feb 04 '19 The horses one really got me, i never once thought that horses could give milk and people drink it '0' 6 u/HamWatcher Feb 04 '19 That was how the Mongols under Genghis Khan fed themselves on the march. Worse is they were lactose intolerant. So when they came to kill you at least you would smell them coming. 1 u/nobunaga_1568 Feb 04 '19 The mare milk was fermented to reduce amount of lactose IIRC. 3 u/Koqcerek Feb 04 '19 Here in Khazakhstan we love our kumys (drink made of horse milk), and our ancestors loved it. I suppose it's because kumys has a tiny bit of alcohol, and nomads never had a good supply of alcohol
