Major candy brands like Almond Joy and Mr. Goodbar have subtly changed their labeling from "milk chocolate" to "chocolate candy" or "chocolatey."

The history of "Government Cheese" is traced back to World War II, when the U.S. government became a massive buyer of milk to produce ice cream for military morale.

During the Reagan administration, this surplus was distributed to low-income families, leading to the creation of the National Dairy Council to drive private milk consumption.
