Totally Random…Got Manhattan Milk?

19 Nov, 2009  |  MG Hearts NYC
Or want milk?

“Certified organic milk straight from the farm” delivered right to your door…by a hottie (the one on the right) – or 2?!?!

LOL!!

No seriously, I saw this on CNN the other day and had to post about it bc I didn’t know that peeps would actually pay to have organic milk personally delivered to their city apt doors!

…Even before crossing the East River, they’re getting an earful of milkman jokes.

“Our friends ask us, do housewives hit on us?” said Marone, 34, who drives their refrigerated truck during once-weekly Wednesday Manhattan milk runs. “We’re hotter than the gardener in ‘Desperate Housewives,’” he joked.

The business has drawn a small but loyal cadre of about 50 customers since its launch a year and a half ago. Despite the recession, they pay $4.99 a quart for organic milk from grass-fed cows on Amish farms in Pennsylvania.

Organic milk is trendy, but almost every supermarket carries it. Nostalgia – brought on by the clink of the milk bottles right outside the door – is proving to be a stronger selling point.

“When I was little, I used to have milk delivered this way,” said lower East Sider and Manhattan Milk customer Gloria Walker.

There’s no hanky-panky with customers, though in Manhattan Milk’s early days, some woke up early to check out the duo…
