Because of the "No Milk-Drinking" Laws of 1E 143 established by King Harald. They outlawed all dairy products other than cheese within the de facto boundries of Skyrim.

Anyone who drinks milk is a criminal to all of Skyrim.

It is often speculated that the real reason for tension between the Nords and Snow Elves was because the Snow Elves drank so much milk that their skin turned white.
