Whatever Happened to the Milk Man?

Did anyone else have a milk man growing up?

Ours came on Saturday morning.

He brought us milk, chips, onion dip, cottage cheese and a host of other things. I, for one, would love to see the concept of the milk man make a comeback!

The topic of the milk man started last night when I asked Matt to pick up some onion dip. He had no clue what I was talking about.

I'm still not sure how he didn't know what I meant by onion dip (who doesn't love onion dip?), but alas, he found some.

When we were eating dinner tonight he asked if he got the right thing.

That's when I began to reminisce about the Barber's onion dip our milk man would deliver.

When I mentioned that we once had a milk man, Jack asked the obvious question.

What's a milk man?

After an explanation, Matt asked the next obvious question.

Whatever happened to the milk man?

Walmart was my reply.

When in doubt, Walmart is easy to blame.
