current pet peeve: WHITE milk.
in case you don't see where this is going, let me explain.
milk, the common name for the nutritious fluid that we humans extract from cows, pasteurize, and drink or consume in another form (ice cream, butter, etc.), is actually the color white.
chocolate, which is in the u.s. a combination of cocoa (a bitter bean with rich flavor), sugar and other ingredients, is usually brown.
strawberries, berries which grow on vines in the summer, are naturally pink or red.
vanilla, a flavor extracted from the vanilla bean, is usually characterized by white or off-white food, though the bean itself is dark brown or blackish.
milk is normally white in color, but it is not flavored with whiteness. it does not taste like white. it tastes like milk. chocolate milk is normal milk with chocolate added to it. strawberry milk is [disgusting] regular milk with strawberry flavor added to it, and it does not taste like pink.
your general options are:
milk, chocolate milk, or strawberry milk.
your general options are not:
white milk, chocolate milk, or pink milk.

i agree. but is your last point supposed to be "white milk, BROWN milk, or pink milk" (as opposed to the current white milk, chocolate pink, pink milk)?
well, i've never actually heard anyone refer to chocolate milk as brown milk, which is why i also did not.
