If bagged milk is so great why dont they bag other drinks as well? Is there bagged apple or orange juice?
I'm sure there is in some form.
I mean we have canned juice and milk too.
Not proper bagged milk from Canada, at least.
It's very simple, really: You buy a bag from the grocery or convenience store and it usually has three pouches (or milk bags) inside. You keep two of them in the fridge and put one into a plastic container that holds it upright, and snip a small amount of one of the top corners off so that you can pour it. The container has a handle to help you pour and we also have these handy slicers.
Works like a dream
Having to explain this baffles my mind. I've been drinking milk like this every day of my life (not on its own, it's always mixed with tea or coffee), so finding out that people don't know about this feels incredibly weird to me.
I distinctively remember getting bagged milk in my school cafeteria when I lived in Louisiana (Baton Rouge) so bagged milk manufactory must exist in the US.
Same here in FL...at least for a little while. I seem to recall getting individual size plastic bags/pouches of milk from about kindergarten until 3rd grade or so in the early 90's, then they switched back to little paper cartons. I do remember kids playing with the bags a lot and making messes with them, so I always assumed that was the reason they went away.They used to serve bagged milk in Elementary schools here in Texas
Ayyy bagged milk gang.
This is why bagged milk is good people.
You can use your own reusable containers at home. Pour the milk out of the bag into the jug.
I'm in Wisconsin and the Kiwk Trip stores have bagged Juice and Milk. I buy the Milk in the bag from time to time but I prefer Fairlife brand milk.If bagged milk is so great why dont they bag other drinks as well? Is there bagged apple or orange juice?
So, when you're finished, do you fold up the top part of it or anything, or just kinda leave it open? Or, do you have like clothes pins, "chip clips," or anything specific for milk?
Just use jugs. Why are you countries weird.
Better than that hyper-pasturized nonsense France does, I guess.
I legit could barely stomach cereal while I was in France.They're starting to remarket UHT milk here in Canada, too, under the guise of 'extra filtration' and long life...and double the price of regular milk.
I haven't tried it yet but the tetra-packed shelf stable high-temp pasteurized milk they sold a few years back tasted terrible.

Carrying/transporting things in bags just seems weird to me anyway, because bags ... don't hold their shape. It's like how cereal is all in bags, but then around the bags, are boxes (for all but the lowest level bargain cereals).
How is bagged milk displayed at the super market? Is it like a bunch of bags laying on top of each other, or stacked in a way to keep them from falling out? Or, is it in a box, and you take it out of the box to bring it home?
Interesting. They're like frozen turkeys.
Question for those in on the bag game:
Does it weird you out or skeeve you out to buy the bag on the bottom level? I know it shouldn't, but when I buy things that lay down like that at the super market, the one on the bottom is always slightly skeevier than all of the others... and I'll reach into the back to get one that's on top rather than the bottom, even if it's less convenient.
DoesCanadapeople do this with other liquids not changed/contaminated once its opened, like say, orange juice?

But yes bagged milk is better for the environment. It uses less plastic compared to the bottles/cartons etc. Generally people pour it into a container anyway
Yes you can. But the fact is that it uses less plastic, because even the plastics in the cartons etc aren't 100% being recycled so its using less material to make meaning less waste

You know we actually have bagged wine in America, although the bag is usually packaged inside of a cardboard box. I think that's a lot worse than bagged milk.
Yes, there is.If bagged milk is so great why dont they bag other drinks as well? Is there bagged apple or orange juice?
Is it like the sack in boxed wine, or has a nozzle or something? Just seems unwieldy.
