Spilt Milk is an album released in 1993 by Jellyfish.

The album contained the singles "The Ghost at Number One" (reached No. 9 on Billboard's Modern Rock Chart), "New Mistake" (which yielded a Japanese-only ten-song E.P.), "Joining a Fan Club" (covered ten years later by Puffy AmiYumi on an album written and produced by Andy Sturmer) and "Bye, Bye, Bye" (which almost appeared on Bellybutton). "He's My Best Friend" later appeared in the 1994 comedy Threesome and on its soundtrack. There were promotional videos for "The Ghost at Number One" and "New Mistake". "Joining A Fan Club" was also covered by Drake Bell in his video Drake Bell In Concert, where he performed in Mexico in 2008.

Outtakes and B-Sides included "Family Tree", "Worthless Heart", and "Watchin' The Rain". The latter two are covers of Jellyfish's forerunners Beatnik Beatch's songs.

A two-disc deluxe edition was released by Omnivore Recordings in January 2015.
