It's a play on words. One of the more well-known puns involve cows and their udders. A cow that produces good milk could be said to produce "udderly (utterly) good milk"

That, I can't answer, since I rarely find puns funny.
Now, for the rest of this thread, I guarantee you other people will give you example after example of mediocre puns for your
