Letter to Carnation

Dear Carnation,

While browsing your web site, I came across your product listings. Most of them were familiar, but there was one that really stood out - evaporated milk. When I was younger, my dad used to play tricks on me at the grocery store, like tell me to go get canned steam; this product sounds oddly similar. I don't think that Carnation would go to the trouble of putting evaporated milk on their web site just to make me feel dumb, but still... What would anyone use that for? Are you supposed to pour it on your evaporated cereal? Or mix it with your evaporated coffee? Do you dip evaporated cookies in it? Come on, guys, what gives?

Sincerely,
Nick Tully
