The theme of this Mini could be "mini" itself, given how many abbr. are used! This puzzle was inspired by the jokes that brown cows make chocolate milk, which has always made me giggle. It went off the rails south of the border though, since most of the clues ended up being American-centric. I think a Canadian theme is up next.
