May the 4th be with you company Tru Moo putting out a special Star Wars Milk that is Blue
May the 4th is known to fans of the movie Star Wars as ” May the 4th Be With You,” a twist on the famous line from the movie. So, every May 4th, Star Wars fans celebrate everything about the movie to the extremes.
Something unique, Star Wars fans can celebrate with a particular item: Star Wars Milk, which can be found in the dairy aisle or your local grocery store.
Star Wars Milk Is Here From A Galaxy Far Far Away
TruMoo, a farmer-owned brand from the Dairy Farmers of America, is releasing blue milk in collaboration with LucasFilm ahead of the May 4th unofficial holiday. And it’s Blue!
Where Does It Come From? Blue Cows?
It’s been around for a little while if you are vanilla-flavored, such a fan, and have traveled to Disney Parks exclusively available at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney parks comes in half gallons and can be found in the dairy section at select retailers like Rite Aid and Wal-Mart in most major markets. The vanilla-flavored, low-fat milk will be available while supplies last through July, Tru Moo said on their website.
Star Wars and LucasFilms announced the theatrical event Thursday on their website as the franchise prepares to celebrate the 25th anniversary of “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.” According to LucasFilms’ news release, the showing will premiere May 4 on “Star Wars Day.”
Yes, there was an actor who declined roles in Star Wars. Some examples:
Al Pacino was offered the role of Han Solo in the original Star Wars film (1977), but he turned it down. The role eventually went to Harrison Ford
Jodie Foster was offered the role of Leia but had to turn it down due to other obligations.
In an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Sylvester Stallone revealed that he auditioned for Han Solo. He said his audition was bad and that he wasn’t suitable for the role.
Kurt Russell was considered for both Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in the original trilogy but turned it down to do a TV western show.
Star Wars New Hope Bloopers
Star Wars: A New Hope had plenty of bloopers and gags on set. This video showcases all of these; the more common footage.
Dad Jokes Meet Snapchat Filters
Who doesn’t love a good dad joke? Dad jokes are the best, in my opinion. Whether the joke is followed by a groan or a laugh, I can still enjoy the humor. There are a TON of dad jokes on the internet. Some dad jokes really are stinkers, but some are extremely clever. My jokes fall somewhere in between.
The CSX File Factor
Most days, our morning show, Big Jim’s House runs a feature called “The CSX-Files.” It’s three dumb news stories and three dad jokes. Big Jim himself will be the first one to tell you that the whole reason for the CSX Files is to be a vehicle for dad jokes. The feature has been in place for a couple of years now.
Ryan has an amazingly funny heckler named Schleppie. Schleppie regularly takes Ryan to task for his dad jokes. Schleppie is the first one to critique Ryan’s delivery of the story or Ryan’s sub-par dad joke. HA! I am laughing as I type this because anyone who has heard the CSX-Files knows that Ryan definitely has challenging moments on the CSX-Files.
While Ryan was on paternity leave, Schleppie, Jenny-Jenny, and I all subbed for Ryan. Schleppie took it to the next level by layering in multiple dad jokes. I promptly stole this idea from Schleppie as did Jenny-Jenny. I believe the adage goes, “Amateurs borrow. Professional steal.” Thanks, Schleppie! Ever since I hosted CSX-Files, I have had one dad joke after another stuck in my head.
Dad Jokes + Snapchat
I was scrolling through my notifications on my phone and opened Snapchat. I saw a broccoli filter and thought, “I wonder if there are dad jokes for broccoli.” I quickly discovered that there are at least 50 dad jokes for anything. Pick something. Google it. You’ll be amazed.
Putting dad/mom jokes together with Snapchat filters was the natural evolution. I used a talking broccoli filter to tell broccoli jokes and sent the video to Jim. Jim responded, “Good lord!” I was delighted when I saw that Jim had shared my video on his blog. Sure, he said I was “weird” but being weird is good. As I’ve told my kids for their entire lives, being weird means you’re special.
I started out doing one a day, but I quickly worried that it was too much. I was concerned that if my reels were hitting my friends feed every day, it would get old fast. It’s hard to resist not immediately making a ton of these because Snapchat has a million filters and there are a billion jokes. Scroll down to check out my videos and check back for updates… if you dare. My videos are Schleppie approved (JK: Schleppie would probably rip them and have better jokes to back it up).
Bready Mercury rises to the occasion with some bread jokes. It's the yeast he could do. #dadjokes #momjokes #breadbaking #BigJimsHouse. Donielle Flynn · Original audio
Cow Jokes
My latest favorite. The UFO filter lets you suck cows up in your mouth. Here’s my bonus joke: Why was the cow so afraid of messing up? Because the steaks were high.
Cow jokes that are udderly hilarious. #dadjokes #momjokes #cow #BigJimsHouse. Donielle Flynn · Original audio
Goat Jokes
I feel like this filter scared people a little bit. Or rather, found it off-putting. I think it’s because of the wonky eyeball effect. To be clear, I am not capable of having my eyes simultaneously go in opposite directions. That’s a goat thing. Bonus joke: What is a goat’s beard called? A goatee!
The GOAT of goat jokes.... I kid. I kid. #goatworthy #dadjoke #momjokes #BigJim #BigJimsHouse. Donielle Flynn · Original audio
Chicken Jokes
The backup chickens had me “cracking” up. These chicken jokes will definitely give you something to bawk about. Bonus (bonus) joke: How do chickens leave buildings? Through the eggs-its.
Chicken jokes that won't lay an egg. #momjokes #dadjoke #chickensofinstagram. Donielle Flynn · Original audio
Toilet Paper
I wish I’d have had this filter back in 2020. I have never looked at toilet paper the same since the Covid shortages. Bonus joke: Why didn’t the toilet paper finish the race? Because it was wiped out.

Broccoli Jokes
The OG! This isn’t the same video I sent Jim, but it’s close. I added the “Chopping broccoli” bit as a nod to the classic Dana Carvey SNL Skit. Bonus joke: Why did the broccoli blush? Because it saw the salad dressing!
