How [some] Canadians drink milk!

Feb 5, 2010 Update:
Thank you Cathal from Toronto Star for covering this story on the front page of the papers =)

Milk bags are not only good for the environment since they are recyclable and use up to 75% less plastic than jugs, but they also boast big savings in transportation costs.

UPDATE: holyy! huge response about milk bags... LOL! The milk tastes the same in a bag, its personal preference, and depends on how much you consume. We also have chocolate milk in bags. We have pop (soda) in bottles and cans, not bags! haha...
These milk bags are in select provinces in Canada, Ontario and Quebec I believe. Also in certain countries around the world.
Ongoing debate about whether or not its ACTUALLY more environmentally friendly, I have no idea.

P.S. Please keep an open mind. People consume liquids differently. yes, it's different and weird to you, but it does not make you or your milk superior. Frustrates me how ignorant some people are! Don't be a snob.

Milk in bags... quite bizarre to foreigners, but mind boggling to me that no one else uses them!

An early celebration for Canada Day tomorrow~ Stay tunned ;)

@MatrixShadow A canister needs a lot more plastic then a paper-thin bag. Also, there are many different kinds of plastic, and some are better than others. Not sure which is better here.
