    Milo is actually Australian funnily enough. It’s like a powdered chocolate thing similar to nesquik, but I don’t think it actually contains any chocolate.

      Ah gotcha. Drinking chocolate is also an unfamiliar term to me, though I’m fairly certain I can guess what it means in American English: hot chocolate

        I’ve never heard of drinking chocolate either, and I’m only now realising that it’s a noun instead of a verb in the meme. I only happen to know about Milo because I’ve got family living in Australia.

        I Wikipedia’ed it cuz malt by its self can’t taste like chocolate.

        Standard Milo consists of four main ingredients: malted barley, milk powder, sugar and cocoa.[
