Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-18

[00:00:00]Forget the casinos. In the 30s, the New York mob moved into milk. Why?

[00:00:06]Alcohol is a risk, but milk is a necessity.

[00:00:10]It was the perfect legal cash cow.

[00:00:12]Gangsters hijacked the transport unions.

[00:00:15]No kickback, no delivery.

[00:00:18]Refuse to pay? Your truck gets torched, your milk dumped, and your driver hospitalized.

[00:00:25]During the Great Depression, the Mafia took a cut of every bottle sold. While family struggled, boss Joe Profaci built an empire on your morning cereal.

[00:00:35]It was the ultimate racket, quiet, daily, and ruthless.

[00:00:40]Did you know the mob owned your breakfast?
