Episode 143 - YOU CAN'T DO THAT! BUY MILK IN GENERAL SHOPS?

Today on RÚV English, the latest in a series looking at things which were illegal or impossible in Iceland, until just a few decades ago.

Until the 1970s, milk could only be purchased in special milk shops - not in supermarkets, or any other kind of store - supposedly for reasons of hygiene.

Darren is again at the National Museum of Iceland to speak to Helga Vollertsen, Curator of Ethnology, to find out more.

You can also listen to this and all other RÚV English programming on Spotify, Apple, or any other podcast place, and subscribe too, to never miss a show.
