McDonald’s is also introducing a half-gallon jug of the iconic McRib sauce, fittingly called A Whole Lotta McRib Sauce.

The dairy sells glass half-gallon jugs of fresh milk at about 20 retailers from Fairbanks to Homer, with an additional 20 carrying only yogurt or gallon-size plastic milk jugs.

For those who managed to snag a spot in the barn’s rafters, the evening was a celebration of cows: their majestic moos, their picturesque habitat and their unpasteurized milk, which Churchtown sells for $6 per half-gallon, plus a $2 bottle deposit fee.

Mary-Ellen McDonald, 74, makes ice cream sundaes with homemade fudge sauce by the half-gallon.

She was handed two half-gallon containers of low-fat milk, cereal, oranges, bags of cookies, containers of hummus, small bags of carrots and other snacks.
