  • A Secret Fourth Thing

Leche de hombre ;)

I was hoping for poppy.

best I can do is Papi. / Solo te puedo ofrecer Papi

Harvey Milk

Man milk

Powdered milk for more milk per milk

Moloko plus

Obviously, it's plasma milk

That’s good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with seis leches. Then you’re in trouble, huh?

Image of a sweating yellow emoji with the text "Imagine seis leches. Heck, imagine siete leches"

Step into my office!

Wow, that was really the perfect scene to channel this energy.

But all of them were deceived

For another leches had been made...

*But they, all of them, deceived

I think we can go a lot further.

Common milk producers:

Cow

Bison

Goat

Sheep

Horse

Yak

Reindeer

Common milk types:

Evaporated

Condensed

Powdered

Whole

2%

1%

Skim

By my count, we should be able to do at least cuarenta y nueve leches. Are we even trying?

Are you?

If we count whole, 2%, 1%, and skim as 4 distinct leches, what’s to stop us from creating a gradient of leches ranging from 0% to 3.25% milk fat?

Infinidad Leches

Wouldn't that make one giant 1.625% milk?

That's a good point. It seems to be an infinite series that should converge on one value of leche. If we solve for that, we should be able to make the ultimate torta de leche, which, paradoxically, is made with only one supreme leche.

What about condensed milk or powdered milk? Do they count as distinct leches as well?

Definitely dinstinct leches. Also plant milks: almond, oat, coconut. Coconut cream should also count IMO. Then there is condensed coconut milk as well.

I'd be suspicious of a tres leches cake made with coconut cream. Somehow, I don't think it would taste right.

I didn't want to show my hand, but off the record, I've experimented with Norwegian beaver milk and Mongolian camel milk to achieve in vitro samples of sesenta y tres leches. Admittedly, it's highly unstable and there have been casualties. Such is the price of progress.

excuse me but 2%, 1% and skim are bastard milks we don't accept those here

Oat, soy, Almond?

The "Cuatro Leches" is like the jackasses on The Price is Right who, seeing you've bid $500, bids $501.

Jackasses? Sir, that's just good strategy. What would you do? Bid $650, just to be sportsmanlike? The Price Is Right is serious business, you either go for the throat or you go home empty handed.

We need a full contact version of The Price is Right. Fuck bids. Earn your right to that merch with the teeth of your enemies.

I think you're just describing Black Friday.

And in the Showcase showdown remember that Alonzo took the ears of 4 contestants which puts them in a close second place to Denise!

The kind of moron who, when asked if they’d like their pizza cut into 4 or 6 slices, says “4. I could never eat six!”

Who cuts a pizza into only four slices?

you sick fuck I'm going to report you.

Sometimes I fold my frozen pizza in half like a calzone and eat it like a taco.

That's no slices.

Great catcher tho

Dumbass eastern european here - what is Tres Leches?

To be even more specific, it's a Mexican dessert made of sponge cake, soaked in a mixture of three milks. Wet cake may not sound appetizing, but it's absolutely delicious.

A type of cake

In addition to the other comment, it means "3 milks" literally.

The tres leches appears to be leaching one of its leches. The quatro leches has no problem holding all of its leches, even though it has to hold one more. How are these the same price?

Leaching leches, Batman!

Cuatro ~= Leches

Cuatro != Quatro

But they were all of them described, for another milk was made...

Is three leches a thing outside of Mexico?

Yes, absolutely yes.

I'm happy to hear that.

Loads of latin countries have tres leches. I prefer the Caribbean ones.

They should be. I have never seen them anywhere in my neck of the woods, but I did find a vape juice that's "Tres Leches" flavored. It's pretty amazing.

I don't want to yuck your yum.

☹️

It is not in my distant country, but it sounds like it should be

It’s common in the US, where there is a large Mexican population

Cuatro leches?? With this economy?

Tell me... how many leches you see.

Picard intensifies

Coquito I call Ron con 5 leches.

Leche evaporada, leche regular, leche condensada dulce (lechera), leche de coco, y crema.

Why have 3 or 4 when you can have 5 and rum?

What's the fourth milk Sofía? What is the fourth milk?

Dulce de leche (which is essentially caramel made from milk).

So tres leches cake has whipping cream, condensed milk, and evaporated milk. Cuatro leches cake adds dulce de leche.

Fun random fact: Mexico calls milk caramel "cajeta". Just don't say that word in public around Uruguay/Argentina

Tap for spoiler

It's a vulgarism for "vulva" there

Cottage cheese

I thought leche was milk?

It is

Tres leches is a cake with condensed milk, caramel, and whipped cream. So three dairy products. It's delicious.

So quatro leches is just a fourth diary product. I'm thinking Oaxaca cheese.

La queres con toda la lecheee ehhhh chinguguencha!!!

Why is it forbidden? It's just like tres leches cake except it's soaked in 4 milks.

Is the fourth one my wife's?

Not a big cheese person, doesn't leeches mean cheeses? 4 chessese should be a little expensive than 3, no? elifaa... (explain like im five and american) im five american cheeses

Milk not cheese. Tres leches is 3 milks, evaporated, condensed and whole (cream).

I'll un-brainfart you. If the price of the cheeses per volume is the same, and both three and four cheeses fill the same container, the price would remain the same 🙂

But different cheeses have different prices.... at least they do when i buy individual cheese types.

im five american cheeses

In this economy?!?!

It's extra work to package more cheeses, even if they're smaller

The fourth cheese could be a cheaper one too.

What is the other leche added? 🤨

Whipped cream, from the looks of it. To be fair, we didn't say types and styles of milk were mutually exclusive

Yes agreed!

Leche de poppy?
