• why did the cow give only buttermilk

  • Answers

  • The cow likely gave only buttermilk because it had recently been milked and the buttermilk was all that remained. Buttermilk is the liquid left after butter has been churned from cream, so when a cow has already been milked and most of the cream has been removed, what will be left is the liquid buttermilk.

  • The cow was likely in the process of producing butter and the milk she gave was a byproduct of that process. The combination of fat and the leftover liquid (known as buttermilk) is skimmed off the top of the churned cream, hence the term "butter"milk.
