Blue milk

 Blue Milk  was a hallucinogenic drink, which, when taken, gave the drinker an in-mind adventure. Such adventures usually seemed highly dangerous and spectacular, with all sorts of amazing technology present. One such drinker, Anakin Skywalker, had some Blue Milk one day before work, and was treated with a vision which included piloting a podracer, flying a starfighter, becoming a Jedi, marrying a queen, and becoming a bad-guy. In real life, Anakin was a child slave, who worked at a garage. In his dream he died on a huge space station, while in real life he was killed by Tusken Raider torture. Another drinker of Blue Milk was a teenager named Lukey, who had hallucinations of rescuing his sister from a gray basketball, fighting his evil father, destroying said gray basketball, defeating the Emperor and dancing with a bunch of Ewoks. In truth he was a farmer boy, who died in a moisture-vaporator related accident.
