17th April in dairy cabinets across the US will see the arrival of Blue Milk from TruMoo, a vanilla-flavoured taste of the galaxy that will bring the spirit of ’77 to breakfast tables everywhere. No word on whether it will make it to international shores, but one way or anudder, fans will want to get a taste of this.
With luck, the new concoction tastes better than its screen counterpart, as Mark Hamill explained to Radio Times.
“Well, the original blue milk was what they call long life milk, which you get at camping stores because you don’t have to refrigerate it. And we were in North Africa. So it has additives — they put blue food coloring in it — and it was really ghastly. Oily and sweet and [yuck]! Triggered your gag reflex. But I said, ‘Look — if they gave me blue milk, you bet I’m going to drink it on camera, because what other chance am I going to get?’ So there’s an indication that I’m an underrated actor — I gulped it and acted like I liked it without vomiting.”
