It's inflation. You see, as time goes on, due to atmospheric changes
attributable to global warming, cows get more and more inflated, until
they're so full of air that they start floating and need to be tethered
down with heavy weights and thick rope. All of the weights and rope cost
money, and it's harder to milk the cows when they're hovering around in
mid-air like that too, so it takes longer, and, as they say, time is money.
The extra cost to the farmers gets passed along to the wholesalers and
again to the consumers, with a bit more markup with each layer. So, even a
small increase in cow inflation can cause a noticeable spike in the cost of
a gallon of milk.
Hope this helps,
