Milk

Milk is a white, edible liquid secreted from the mammary glands of female mammals. It's primary purpose is to nourish infants too young to eat conventional food. Due to its nutritional value and taste, animal milk (especially that of cows) is a popular beverage amongst developing and even mature humans.

While human females also lactate, it is usually only done during and shortly after the time of pregnancy.

Aside from being drunk directly, milk can be produced into a wide variety of foods, such as Cheese, Butter, Ice Cream and Yoghurt, or even added to existing products to improve the taste, such as coffee. Any produce made from milk is called “dairy” and farms specializing in breeding milk producing animals, such as goats and cows, are therefore called “dairy farms”.

Amongst Liminals, both Minotaurs (specifically a Milk-Producing type) and Fauns are known to lactate permanently, even outside of pregnancy. Dairy Breed Centaurs are also known for their exceptional amount of milk, but it’s unknown how often they lactate.

Minotaur milk is noted to be especially delicious and nutritious and is therefore a high-selling commodity. And since it’s technically not cow’s milk, it can therefore be drank even by people with a milk allergy.

Trivia

 * Cattle that is being bred exclusively for Dairy Farming is known as Holstein cattle. Which is where the Holstaur species gets its name from.
