I'm a hot blooded American and I can recognize a delicious pitcher of horse semen any day of the week.
Do y'all think we don't have cum pitchers in the US? I know we're bad, but we're not savages.
I was going to say, I keep one by my desk, topped off for the dog every day. Is this supposed to be confusing?
I think in America, they sell milk in soft plastic bags to be cut open, so you have to put them in these jugs for stability and handling.
Ok I am counting Africa and Europe as one now except Greenland, that is its own thing.
I've literally never seen that happen in America and I've lived in 5 states, both rural and urban, and have visited over 30.
I saw it in Louisiana. For a few months, my high-school cafeteria was giving us milk in a bag. Like individual-size bags that you poked a straw into. I was very confused the first time I saw it
They had them in my elementary school back in the 90s. Haven't seen one since then. They were pretty cool though. I'm sure some people would buy it if they brought it back for nostalgia.
We do actually have the bag and jug too! I love getting my milk at Kwik Trip because that's how they sell it. And it just tastes better. If it weren't so damn expensive, I'd force my household to convert to it.
You can get it in Wisconsin, but it's not super common. We mostly use the plastic jugs or glass bottles.
Irishtemper got it right! Wisconsin, we have it here at the Kwik trips. Might be in other places too, but that's where I go to get it.
Yeah I've only ever gotten the plastic gallons and cartons of milk.
I was half thinking this was a plastic meme since everything is plastic here.
I used to work in a kitchen of a well-known chain pub in the UK and our mill came in in bags. Saved on alot of waste as we only needed one plastic jug and the bags used significantly less plastic than bottles of milk.
In my experience, it depends on the country and it's only in some stores - I vaguelly remember getting milk like that at some point, which I think it was in The Netherlands.
Mind you, it's more climate friendly than plastic bottles and likely glass (even with recycling).
I am 40 and Canadian and have lived in three provinces (Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario). I have never seen bagged fucking milk.
Strange. Literally every grocery store in Ontario for decades including many convenience stores sell bagged milk.
Quebec here, 4L in 3 bags. Always has been... Honestly didn't know it wasn't common elsewhere in Canada. TIL
Albertan here. When I was a kid my grandma always had bagged milk, but it got phased out in the 90s and I haven’t seen it in forever.
I think so because I've lived here almost 50 years and it's always been bagged in Ontario wherever I went.
Partially-confused American here.. Why isn't it in a bag still?
Do y'all pour it out of the bag so you have more chances to catch an infection or so it goes bad faster?
Lol love this thread with so many people confidently incorrect. It's not common to come in bags but not the norm. Also... Yeah why isn't it still in the bag.
Let's show our abomination to Americans (and Western Canadians)
Yall over in Ontario are weird lol

All I can think of when I see this is the bigger bag, that had like 3 or 4 1L bags of milk in it that this one time fell out of their grocery bag in my parents car and 2 of the bag got sliced open. The smell never left the car despite major efforts to clean up. I hazard to guess this is a big reason they no longer come in bags, but I hear maybe they still too in central Canada. Not here in the west.
I hated that scary moment when the big bag of milk bags fell open unexpectedly.
The tension that I'd feel after dropping the bags was immense. It was like time slowed while waiting to see if one of them would burst. It was freakier when one of the falling bags bounced off the floor. Fun times.
