What other material can you use that would stop it from being absorbed by paper? Even plastic lining has shelf life and whiskey is lik 40-50% ABV. Pretty sure that will disolve paraffin wax so that is out.

Re-use the glass bottles, and ship kegs to the booze stores instead?

It doesn't taste the same as glass, in my opinion. Aluminum makes it taste 'tinny', metallic.

Actually no, not at all anymore with the liners they use. It's a bias leftover from when only the cheap stuff came in cans and only applies at all today if you drink out of said can. (the top usually isn't coated)

In fact cans are actually better for storing beer then most bottles since they seal tighter and let in zero light.

The fuck am I gonna do with two gallons of shampoo? 😛
That won't fit in my shower! 16oz seems to last months as it is, long hair and all.

Keep it stored somewhere, refill the 16ozers as you need. I just don't want to have to go to a store every goddamn day to get one thing or another. I also buy everything in bulk so I may be the wrong person to coordinate these kinds of things.

I mean, if it's a containerless store, I think you can bring whatever size you want and just pay for the amount dispensed 😉
But if you're going to the store every day for shampoo or laundry detergent, you might just be running a secret dog grooming shop in your sleep without realizing it.
 
If I'm paying $35 or more for a bottle of liquor it better come in a glass bottle. I get and appreciate that it's better for the environment but save paper bottles for the bottom shelf brands and other products.
 
How about we stop importing Pelligrino, Fiji, and Voss water!

Carbon footprint of those bottles are off the fuckin charts!

The best example of this I can think of is Yuengling Lager.... The bottle is green glass, so it tends to skunk the beer a little bit. If you get it in a can, it's a totally different beer.

Did I stutter? Fuck does it being an American company have to do with it being imported and shipped over 4000 miles from its source and its related carbon footprint?

The madness of drinking bottled water shipped halfway round the world

We can’t get enough of it, but the long-term environmental impacts of bottling and transporting water across countries are doing more damage than we realise
