| Summary | "Make Mine Homogenized" by Rick Raphael is a science fiction short story published in the early 1960s. The narrative cleverly intertwines elements of rural life with unexpected scientific phenomena, centering around the extraordinary milk produced by a cow named Sally and its effects on the surrounding environment. This humorous tale explores themes of science, the consequences of experimentation, and human ingenuity in the face of absurdity. At the heart of the story lies Hetty Thompson, the resilient ranch owner who discovers that her cow's milk and her hens' eggs possess explosive properties following an unusual atomic test nearby. After a series of comedic and explosive events, news of the miraculous milk and golden eggs attracts the attention of the military and scientists, leading to hilarious situations as they attempt to harness these bizarre discoveries. As they delve deeper into the mystery, they uncover not only the potential of the milk and eggs but also the challenges and absurdities that come with managing newfound power. Ultimately, the story becomes a satire on scientific exploration and the unpredictability of nature, concluding with the humorous realization that what was once extraordinary sometimes returns to normalcy, leaving characters—and readers—reflecting on life's eccentricities.
