MILK! A 10,000-YEAR FOOD FRACAS

Narrator Brian Sutherland sounds professorial and polished, two essential qualities for someone telling us about milk throughout human history. He keeps the details interesting by giving them to us at a steady pace. The making of cheese, lactose intolerance, and harvesting milk from other mammals are a few examples of the details listeners will learn about a food many consider essential. There are three parts to the story, and Sutherland is measured, steady, and informative in his presentation of centuries of history on milk's role in human cuisine.
