Omg is this the joke? Chalk in milk? So it took me 30 years to actually understand this Simpsons joke?

The golden years writers were so genius.

I thought the R was because it was from rats, and malk because they didn't want it to be tested like milk is (it's just a drink not milk, aye?) but maybe I'm not remembering the episode correctly.

I always took that joke as: cheap products that don't care will put any bullshit on their label. In my head, "Vitamin R" was just an empty lie by Big Malk.
