I'll just grab a glass of milk...

When did that become a thing?  Becasue - it is a VERY American thing.  RIght up there with cold cereal for breakfast.

Turns out - it became possible at the end of the 19th century.  But all the moving parts that had to come together to make it happen are kindof increadible.  So come with me on the journey to find out just how a glass of milk at home became possible
