Friction keeps it in. I've never ever had the bag come out in my entire life.

That's what she said?

 

[Alligatorjandro]

All that means is that milk companies are too cheap to use bottles.

 

[LaserBuddha]

The hardest bit is actually the first part, when the bag is full and the milk level is above the edge of the container. The spout could collapse if you don't have a steep enough angle when pouring.

In other words it sucks.

Also, if you accidentally tip over a milk jug too far, you get a small spill. Tip over a bagged milk jug too far? Bag falls out, hemorrhages milk everywhere, fucking disaster zone.

The hole in the milk bag is significantly smaller than the hole in a jug. The jug would spill much more milk.

No because if you tip the jug too far, it doesn't fall on the floor or counter and freely puke milk everywhere. Also, it's rigid so you don't have the effect of the bag settling due to gravity and forcing more milk out. And of course there's the fact that in any attempt to pick up the dropped bag, you are squeezing more milk out.

Physics are your enemy, Canadians.

 

[Blackface]

the bag has never fallen out of the jug in my entire life. WTF are all of you going on about,

 

[Haly]

FYI we're not known for our understanding of physics.

 

[Divvy]

No because if you tip the jug too far, it doesn't automatically fall on the floor or counter and freely puke milk everywhere. Also, it's rigid so you don't have the effect of the bag settling due to gravity and forcing more milk out.

We should have everything in jug form then!

Don't project your clumsiness onto us.

 

[overcast]

They gave us bagged milk in elementary school.

Everybody would poke right through them. Though I thought they were pretty cool at the time.

You would get a much bigger spill with a jug or carton.

It's like a ticking timebag.

Show me that shit with a near-full bag being tipped over. Actually post a vid so I know you aren't cheating with tape.

9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB

 

[Divvy]

Pretty sure that is a full unopened bag.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

How do you keep the milk fresh after the bag has been poked?

 

[Divvy]

How do you keep the milk fresh after the bag has been poked?

The average family of three would probably go through a bag in two days. There's no real freshness concern in that time frame.

 

[BertramCooper]

How do you keep the milk fresh after the bag has been poked?

That would be my biggest concern.

Are the bags resealable?

 

[Granger Danger]

I said near-full, since a sealed bag benefit from the friction more.

Oliver Stone and I will get to the bottom of this.

I only use milk for cereal, so it doesn't go that quickly. Are there milk bag clips or something?

Dude. I lived in Ontario. I used bagged milk. I know it can happen because it's happened to me.

It's like I say 'some swans are black' and you post some pictures of white swans to prove me wrong.

 

[user friendly]

I'd say a nearly full bag would have more friction.

How much are you tipping the bag. No need to tip it even half as much as I did.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

You can have your bagged milk Canada.

Do not want.

Just get a chip clip.

 

[Nard Bagman]

Milk is milk. It's all delicious.

ONE MORE THING:

When your fail sack does fall out of the jug in the video, I want you to see you scramble to grab it and cause a jet of milk to shoot out of the opening.

 

[Sibylus]

Milk is milk. It's all delicious.

Yup. So long as you're not molesting cows, I don't care how you drink it.

 

[Max Armstrong]

You could use a chip clip, but honestly if it takes you a lot of time to finish one bag, I wouldn't buy them because they come in packs of three, so it would take a lot of time to finish them. We usually go through a bag everyday, so it's pretty convenient for us.

Good educational video on how to use milk bags:

[DJ_Lae]

I remember bagged milk when I was little (maybe 5 or so), and we'd stick one of the bags into a bag-size jug, snip the corner, and pour it from there like it wasn't the most bizarre thing in the world.

I haven't seen bagged milk in BC since then.

It looks un-American as hell. Keep that crap away from us.

oh hi there

how it should be done

Good point. I will commence research on how to shoot milk from a gun.

EDIT: Oh damn you Americans beat me to it:

I think most single people just buy 1L cartons. That's what I do.

 

[beje]

Would rather drink milk out of bags than out of this:

Worst jug design ever. I felt like a little kid when I first started using them because I'd spill everywhere. And that stupid little foil thing that covers the opening when you first get them. Hate it.

Ugh, that looks exactly like a bleach or detergent bottle. I wouldn't drink anything coming from such a container. Do people in the US really buy milk in that format?

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Bagged milk is pretty funny.

 

[BigPickZel]

I buy mine in 7.76mm shells and I shoot them into my face with a gun.

It's Costco brand. Bulk.

I go through almost 2L a day. How could you drink that little?

 

[Vormund]

Bullshit what. I haven't seen it in Wellington.

Auckland.

Sorry, I'm Aussie. But I was totally fine with it. Makes sense putting it in a jug.

btw love Auckland.

And skimming over the thread:

A lot of Canadians have never seen it.
A lot of New Zealanders have never seen it.
A lot of Brits haven't seen it.

Never seen it in Australia either.

 

[Covfan]

We've actually got milk bags in the UK and a superior jug system called "Jugit"

[BigPickZel]

Teach me how to jugit.

It is still one gallon... I just get my milk at Publix instead...

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

The bags are completely sterile and clean. Jugs are not. Also jugs contain BPA one of the most hazardous chemicals on earth. It seeps into your food/drink and can cause to tons of problems, from death to cancer.

I suggest googling BPA. It's our generations asbestos.

I'm aware of it. What makes you think the bag does leech chemicals into the milk? Because they tell you it doesn't?

 

[Desmond]

Jug or Tetra Pak. Anything else is wrong


fake edit: almost forgot bout the glass bottles you get from the milkman.

 

[mt1200]

Whats wrong with bagged milk?, its all over the world, not only canada.
