At least it's not Canadian milk
We trailed this a few years ago in the supermarket I worked at. The idea was you'd buy the jug and then just buy a new bag when you needed one. Save on plastic waste I assume, but it never caught on.
I figure the reusability of jugs would make them less wasteful, but I have no notion of the metrics. The one thing about bags I just can't get over is there is no reasonable way to reseal it again. They cut the corner and then just have an open liter of milk sitting around. Wild stuff.
You keep it in your refrigerator, it doesn't smell.
Source: used to get my milk from bags when I was still drinking it, am Canadian.
Is it...powdered? Or somehow it's liquid in a bag? I'm so confused here.
Nope. Full on liquid. They put it in pitchers, like this.
Here's a brief summary of why they do it this way: LINK
Fascinating. Thanks for the info!
The big bag you see holds three separate food grade bags with the milk in them.
bagged milk is just the same as any other milk in a different container. bagged tea is the lowest quality tea out there
