A quick stop in Fairbury, Illinois to visit Kilgus Farmstead and try their locally legendary chocolate milk! It took lots of meandering through cornfields to get there, but was well worth the effort.

Chocolate milk in bed: low difficulty and high guilt factor, but not that rare of an occurrence for we 'serious' chocolate milk drinkers. Here we hit some highlights of the Ohio chocolate milk scene, which is not to be taken lightly.

Lots of great chocolate milk in Michigan, and there's still plenty that I've yet to experience-- so I look forward to returning with open arms, lofty expectations, and wanton gullet.

The heist of the century! Or at least of 2018. Seven days, 1,500 miles, and 8 million calories later, I attempt to squeeze every last delicious drop of chocolate milk from the state of Pennsylvania, which is no easy task-- and not for the uninitiated, unprepared, or undetermined. Unkempt is ok.

Wisconsin is America's Dairyland, and produces some excellent chocolate milk-- but only one can be the best. Would Lamers Dairy live up to the hype?

A visit to beautiful Sassy Cow Creamery in Columbus, Wisconsin, a brief tasting of some of the other chocolate milk available in the Madison area, and the skunk drops in for a quick cameo.

Wisconsin is known as 'America's Dairyland' and it's not impossible to see why-- the streets are veritably paved with cheese curds and chocolate milk is rarely (if ever) beyond arms reach. Here we hit up the Saturday farmers market and UW Madison campus for some Babcock Hall Dairy chocolate milk and a touch of nostalgia.

The future of chocolate milk is indulgently bright, and led by innovators like Traderspoint Creamery of Zionsville, Indiana. How can 'less' be more, and 'more' be...more-- at the same time?

(spoiler alert: less volume, more flavor)

Both Warren Buffett and Burbach's Countryside Dairy chocolate milk can be found in Omaha-- however, only one of them is delicious. Would the search yield any other (previously untried) chocolate milk?

South Dakota is known for lots of things, including Stensland Family Farms Creamery, Wall Drug, and Adam Vinatieri. Oh yeah, and there's Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwood, the Corn Palace, Sturgis, and the Badlands National Park to name a few more. We go from one side of the state to the other in search of increasingly elusive chocolate milk, discovering a few universal truths along the way, such as why cut cantaloupe and road trips don't go well together.
