I can't help with bibliography right now, but milk turned blinky and then
sour before if clabbered. And then the product was clabber in our family,
not 'clabbered milk'. Arkansas-Texas South Midland variety. Some people
confused blinky and blue john milk, but of course we knew the right terms!
Fred Tarpley did a survey in Texas in the 1960s and found some interesting
distributions, referring in his publication to the "blinky / blue john
isogloss." With pasteurization and homogenization milk doesn't do any of
these things on its own.
