The survey of 1,000 adults found that 7% of Americans believed that chocolate milk came from brown cows, which translates to roughly 16 to 17 million people.

Key Details About the Finding:

Extent of Misconception: In addition to the 7% who said it came from brown cows, nearly 48% of participants didn't know where chocolate milk came from.

Probably the same thoughts toward Donald Trump.
