Milestone: 800th Chocolate Milk Reviewed!!
Eight hundred different chocolate milks gathered, sampled, and reviewed in just under 500 days, and 100 (#701-800) in just a 30 day span (an average of 3.33 new chocolate milks per day). Here's to hoping the pace slows down a bit so I can begin to work solid food back into the rotation.

VB#58: Mad Croc and Power Cow Chocolate Milk in Finland
Chocolate milk is more plentiful in Finland than throughout the Baltics, so once again it's fun to hop store-to-store in search novel types of liquid gold. Here are just a couple of quick highlights from Helsinki and Tampere.
Milestone: 700th Chocolate Milk Reviewed!!
Pat Robertson has nothing on this 700 club: it took only 26 days to gather, sample, and review chocolate milks 601-700, an average of 3.8 new chocolate milks per day. Probably not a sustainable pace for a longer term, and from a health perspective-- something that will take considerable amounts of cardio, salad, and toothpaste to redress.
VB#57: Blood From a Stone: Chocolate Milk in Tallinn, Estonia
It's been difficult wrangling chocolate milk throughout the Baltics, and Estonia would be no exception. Tallinn is definitely one of my favorite cities in the world, but it is in desperate need of some decent chocolate milk. A sweetened condensed pouch and gimmicky self-heating can don't quite cut it.
