Hey Lemmy, I recently moved from Ontario, land of bagged milk to BC where they don’t.

So for the second time since moving, my fresh unopened 4L jug of milk made a small puddle in my fridge before opening it. Does anyone have any tricks to prevent that from happening?

Do I just have to enjoy a fresh glass right after returning from the grocery store?

    You go to the bulk store, grab a plastic bag, and have the clerk pour you a bag full of milk. What’s not to understand?

        I’m just messing.

        They come in 4L packages, split into three tall 1.33L pouches. You slide the pouch into a pitcher, snip the corner off, and use the pitcher to pour.

        If you google milk bags, you’ll see what it is.

          It’s just such a crazy thought to sell a liquid in a bag! Though I could see this actually producing less waste than a carton, since the latter has to be lined on the inside, which isn’t easily recyclable.
