I was wondering...

Can you guys get milk in bags in the states or just jugs? Is it only Canada that does bags?

My school cafeteria used to serve milk in bags but I have never noticed it anywhere else in the states. I'm sure some sort of food service does provide it in bags state side. Possibly Gordons or Sysco.
But I have never seen the average grocery store sell it in bags.

bags of milk at school :D

I have never heard of this Bags of Wine are awesome

wtf bags of milk....

You could probably get it at a wholesaler like Sams Club, BJs, etc, but it would be in a bag built for a dispenser. No idea how you go about drinking a bag of milk, but good luck to you good sir!

It's actually quite convenient. You just put it in a jug and snip off the top corners and pour it out.

I'm a bit confused. We already have it in jugs, no need to pour it in a jug, unless it's a glass jug.

I've never seen bags, not even at wholesale clubs (there's a BJ's and a Costco in my area, Sam's Club too but I don't go there). Just various jugs and boxes.

Weird.....I'm thinking this is an eastern Canada thing.... I've lived in western Canada my whole life and have never seen milk in a bag....... 1 and 2 L cartons and 2 and 4 L plastics jugs....

Yea the bags are sweet you just snip a the corner and put it in a milk jug like he said.

Interesting. Never heard of milk in a bag.

I thought it was strange when I saw my first "square" jug of milk.

Is it cheaper this way or something??

maybe it has a longer shelf life in that bag i think it'd kind of cool i prob would drink it I'm pretty picky when it comes to drinking milk

What, no obvious euphemism jokes? That must break a rule or something.

The little differences.

My old lady gotta nice seta milk bags

It just doesnt make sense to me, if you cut the bag then you can't reseal it like with a jug of milk that has a cap.

If you cut the bag then poor it into something else to store it that seems like a wasted step. It just seems it would be easier to poor it from a jug and cut a bag poor it from a bag to something else.

I guess it saves on plastic too considering that the bags use less of it, and the milk would be poured into a re-usable receptacle. Makes sense to me!

you don't need to reseal it if it's in the fridge. it stays good in the bag. probably would if you left the lid off a jug and kept it in the fridge too

bags of milk

Yeah, but the milk would absorb any smells inside your fridge and taste funky. Weird idea. I'm lactose intolerant though, so I don't care what you filthy milk drinkers do.
