Have you heard of bagged milk?

[imported_LoKe]

I've come to the conclusion that few non-Canadians have heard of bagged milk. Have you?

Only because of AT, lol.. we've had lengthy discussions on it before.

 

[Yossarian]

Shame. All of the Americans I asked outside of ATOT had no idea, and were rather fascinated.

 

[JMWarren]

Didn't know it was unique to Canada!

 

[Syringer]

Bagged homo milk? 😕

 

[Gunslinger08]

What's the advantage of bag over jug?

 

[drinkmorejava]

yes, my grandmother always gets it and the bag in pitchers...not sure why, but she does. Then there are those huge ones too for cafeterias and such. Don't drink milk though.

You put the bags in a sort of jug, so I can't really say.

I suppose since you get three bags at once, you can keep the other two sealed until you need to use them.

a 4 litre jug takes up lots of room and is rather awkward.

the 4 litre bag milk consists of 3 bags that fit into plastic containers. It is easier to handle.

Yes, homo milk.

 

[Squisher]

Packaging in other countries can be weird. A guy at work came back from a vacation to Poland with some pepper paste that he was spreading on crackers. It looked like a tube of toothpaste.

 

[MetalMat]

We used to have that in the schools here back in 3rd grade. It only lasted for a year. What bad idea that was lol

 

[mercanucaribe]

What about powdered milk? I've never seen it in the USA.

 

[Atomicus]

Got some bagged milk from my trip to Canada over winter break, tastes just as good as jugged 🙂

[Rock Hydra]

Yeah, I've had some of it dumped on my truck. It was a bitch to clean off.

It seems it might be easier just to buy the milk in a container than to buy a bag just to stick it in a container. I guess it's part of the Canadian culture and they don't want to give up thier Milk bags and Ketchup Potato Chips.

Was the meat in Bags Canadian style?
