Cantrell Institute of the Arts Reports Record Surge in Milk Prices
Posted by: Avelyn ca Vella, Cantrell Institute of the Arts
Date: Year 21 Day 142 Onboard the Strike-class Medium Cruiser World Class [ASS] in system Iotran (346, 134).

Sentients of the galaxy, I am Professor Halin Maulk of the Cantrell Institute of the Arts, where we have been studying the benefits of the milk from both the thala-siren and the bantha in these strange times with many under stay-at-home orders on Leafar due to hordes of insects tormenting the populace. This is not usually in our purview, but thanks to being quarantined with the looming threat of pestilence caused by these insects, we decided to research these creatures. The milk market has exploded thanks to the population boom of these creatures, with our studies finding several health benefits from consumption such as increased energy and vigor. Of course, we at the institute cannot recommend placing your mouth on the teat itself, due to danger of the usually docile creature responding with violence. The best way to extract the healthy beverage is to squeeze it directly from the teat into a bottle of some sort. It can then be immediately enjoyed or stored in nearly freezing temperatures to consume later.

Sales have been booming in many places such as Centrepoint Market, the Trade Federation’s Department of Trade, and the Gilded Rose Auction House along with its subsidiary Fairwind Exotics Auctions, with prices sometimes reaching unprecedented levels, especially at auction. Similar to the benefits of ancient kolto but more convenient, the thala-siren and bantha can be transported with you on your ships, unlike kolto or bacta processing facilities which are usually land based. Not only has milk seen increased demand, but also the sale of cookies, especially the ever-popular chocolate chip, has skyrocketed thanks to the popular practice of dipping them in the milk. We do warn against consuming in excess - in trials, it has led to increased cases of obesity which comes with all sorts of other health risks. Remember folks, stay healthy and exercise before treating yourself with this tasty treat. Thank you.
