Although I didn’t know about chocolate milk. And… syringes? Geez, that means that my ancestors are kind of responsible for heroin. Booze, chocolate, and narcotics: I’m kind of shocked that there’s nothing in there about the Irish being all up in tobacco technology, too.

PS: Yes, bizarrely, this is kind of an ancestral pride thing. It’s kind of hard to unpack. Just chalk it up to random weirdness and be on your way.

I suspect your Scots/Irish cousins in The South have tobacco covered. Not Ireland proper granted, but some things just require becoming American.
