Our northern friends and milk.

[Jesda]

I was at Fark reading about a shooting at a school in Canada. A few people brought up something about Canadians consuming milk from bags instead of cartons and jugs.

Is this true? What the hell happens if the bag pops?

No use crying over spilt milk ... eh?

[Mr1der]

yes, bag milk is a disturbing thing...

"this ain't no capri sun! good god man!"

They actually save money by ripping the udder right off the cow and then labeling it "Sac de lait" instead of actually milking them.

[nismofly]

we have those here at school, for the dispensers, theyre just huge plastic bags within milk crates that fit inside the cooler

ROFL!

Actually, i remember the milk carton going the way of the mini chocolate or regular milk in a bag back in the 5th grade, and i'm 22! Hmm.

[base9se]

does it have the same nutritional value?

[Jesda]

So, lets say you have a bag of milk with your school lunch. How do you set it on the table?

[Axel Grungy]

yeah we had bags at my high school, i preferred them to cartons. carton milk always tasted funny to me. it was fun to throw the bags also

[The Mic]

last time i went to Peru, i remember going to the local grocery store to buy some milk with my cousins. Tunred out to be bagged milk. I was like "wtf is this? "

then i accidentally dropped it and it spilt all over the street

[Chingon]

They'll sell you coke in a bag down in Mexico if you don't wish to pay for the bottle. Of course, they give you a straw too.

[Altiman94]

my grandparents used to purchase milk this way. They just put the bag in this special piture they made for it. It worked good.

[Jesda]

Wow, now I'm remembering things.

In 1994 I was in Thailand, somewhere near Bangkok. I wanted a Pepsi and I got a bag with a straw. I said to my parents "What do I do with this?" So they bought me a bottle.

[Mr1der]

it's like capri sun...

perhaps the foil is easier to dispose/recycle?

[madbouncy]

It's not foil, it's just plastic. Our school switched to them because they're cheaper and they also had less milk in them then a carton. The best part of the bag is if somebody is eating you can just push on the bag and it squirts all over them.

[driverdriver]

It's a litre and a half of milk in a bag, there are 3 of these bags in a larger bag. These bags are big and you cannot take it with you or pop a straw and drink it straight from the bag. The milk tastes the same, the bag costs less to break down and recycle than a carton. For portable milk consumption, we still use cartons or mini bottles.

[Dirtylou]

I got some family in Canada and when I first saw "the bag" I too was like wtf along with a chuckle but it's not that bad. You buy it take it home and pour it in a container at home. simple.

[StrangeLove]

I remember milk bags back in kindergraden...

You're drinking your milk, and your straw comes out the bag... your tray then begins to fill with milk as you attempt to find the straw hole...

^very traumatic for kindergardeners

[Dirtylou]

Yo I was never really the sharpest pencil in the box but don't really remember being that brain dead in school.lol
