Milk is a liquid produced by the mammary glands of female mammals, which provides the primary source of nutrition for their newborns, before they are able to digest other types of food. (TNG episode: "A Matter of Honor") In many cultures, non-sentient mammals are domesticated and their milk used as food, either as a beverage by itself, or in products such as cheese and ice cream. (DS9 episode: "Far Beyond the Stars", TOS episode: "The Conscience of the King") On Earth, cows were the most common milk animals, along with goats. (TNG episode: "Up the Long Ladder")
