You see, in Hinduism (which until seven years ago was my family's religion), the cow is a sacred animal. To kill a cow is sin. To insult a cow, even by accident, will result in having no children. (Not kidding; this happened to a king and his wife.) So, much in the same way that "Oh my God" is the common expression for surprise, "Holy cow" became the less than cool equivalent of "Oh my God" when Hindu worshippers immigrated to the West and started speaking English.
