Milk should come in bags, there I said it

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 7 points 9 months ago

We used to get it in glass bottles, and the bottles would be reused (not melted down).

Just a shame getting it that way costs about 3-4 times as much as a big four pint plastic jug from Tesco.

[-] derpgon@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

That's just dumb. It's supposed to cost a little more, where the extra money is returned upon returning the bottle.

Oh, hello there fellow Canadian

[-] ji17br@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 months ago

I’ve heard this a couple times now. Where in Canada are they doing this?

[-] SpeakinTelnet@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

Ontario and Quebec are the two I know have the 4L in bags. I don't know for the others.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago

Ontario? I think you mean NewFordland

In the fridge?? Seems like I need a bigger fridge

[-] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

So, do you just throw the bag in the fridge? How is it stored?

[-] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Throw the 4L bag in the fridge. Remove one of the three inner 1.3 L bags, and place it in the dedicated milk bag holder that every household has:

Snip the corner, pour yourself a glass, and enjoy!

How do you close the milk bag? Surely you can't leave it open wouldn't that shorten the milks lifespan, right?

[-] Meron35@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Milk and other raw foods generally won't spoil any faster unwrapped Vs wrapped in a fridge. Wrapping is mostly to stop odour transfer and other physical contaminants. The lid of a milk jug would be functionally similar to wrapping a glass of milk with plastic wrap.

From all these comments I have had some serious misconceptions on the fridge life of milk.

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

The bag-jug-holder-thingy that my partner's dad gave us has a little hook thing where you can pull the snipped end of the bag through. Works fairly well to mostly close the bag, and only lets out a drizzle of milk when you tip it (my kid's favorite part lol).

[-] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I was wondering the same thing. I'm guessing it just gets used fast enough. They are smaller than what most Americans buy.

[-] howrar@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

We don't close it. It's never been a problem.

This is almond juice, not milk.
