Vi-Co

Vi-Co was a brand of chocolate milk manufactured by the company Dairy Producers. When Dairy Producers were bought out by Dairyland in 1995, the Vi-Co line was abolished. It was available in Saskatchewan, Canada, a few parts of Manitoba , New Brunswick and Quebec. Laiterie Royala in Beauce, Quebec still uses the name Vico for one of their chocolate milk products.

The term 'Vi-Co' is still occasionally used today in Saskatchewan and Quebec as a slang term for any chocolate milk.[1] It is a notable regional attribute for both provinces and is frequently cited as a defining feature of Saskatchewan's folk history.[2]

An alcoholic beverage, a variation of the White Russian, was made with vodka, ice, and Vi-Co, and known as the "Psycho Vi-Co".

Vi-Co was available in Ontario as far back as the 1930s. The Bowmanville Dairy, owned by the Bettles family at the time, introduced Vi-Co in their page 4 ad in the Canadian Statesman on Aug 27, 1936. [3]

gollark: Ethereum charges you for on-blockchain computing power in some way, but since the NFTs mean basically nothing and are just pointers to external things, they can totally have turing machines if they want to.
gollark: The issue with that is that mining has to be hard to *do* but easy to *verify*.
gollark: I suppose there's some ambiguity on where it would actually revoke from.
