ooooh.. oooh, I KNOW this one!!

My Dad and Granddad and Uncle all served in WWII. All of 'em came back with 'aquired tastes' in military cusine. All of 'em actually liked spam. However, only my Dad liked powdered eggs and powdered milk.

Sunday breakfasts were sometimes "WWII" breakfasts, including fried spam, powdered eggs, and powdered milk.

Your answer is powdered milk.. it's 'milk' spelled (and made) backwards.

Is skuzzy gonna lick my milk mustache now?

Now the big question is how does one make milk backwards...

I have visions of shoving lactic fluid back into a cow....  can't get it out of my head now, it's a horrid sight.

LOL.. I'm stuck with the description I got from Dad. "They take the water out, it becomes a powder. Put the water back in.. it's milk again. So you see.. it's milk made and spelled backwards."

Being only 6 or 7 at the time, I bought into the explanation.

However, thanks for the visual on your take. ;)
