Bagged Milk aha (revised)

So after our discussion on bagged milk, i found this website completely dedicated to these awesome creations. Which by the way has links to other awesome sites on the subject also.

This man (or woman's) sense of humour is amazing. It plays on the fact that other cultures (specifically Americans) are completely in awe that we have created such things. The creator of the site has become so frustrated with the ignorance towards milk bags that they felt it was necessary to make the information available. The site provides animated "milk bag operation" showing how to cut the corner off in order to be able to pour, but also as if that was not enough, detailed instructions with photographs to guide you through the entire process from package to pitcher. There are links leadingto discussions boards "the Brunching Shuttlecocks" being one of them. It is unfortunately almost all Americans bashing our amazing bagged milk, questioning it's practicality, and even safety towards children and the potential of cockraoches ntering the small hole!

The milk is typically sold in 1 or the more popular 1.33 litre bags in packages of 3 bags (4 litres). You will need to buy a pitcher to put the bags into to pour and cut off the corner of the bag. It was a great idea as it saves waste compared to the large jugs and containers that milk is sold in elsewhere. Also, the bags can be re-used for sandwiches for example. Us Canadians are good at reducing, reusing and recycling! I wasn't aware previous to our discussion in class at the significance of the bagged milk. It is ranked up in importance for Canadian trademarks with tuques and maple syrup!

Bagged milk is however available in Angentina, Hungary, Israel, India, Montenegro, Poland, South Africa and Uruguay. In Canada they are mostly available in Ontario, Maritimes and Quebec.

The problem is that people are not always open to change and believe that the way things are done in their area and their lives is the right way. it is important that we live our lives open to ideas others may have and give them a chance as they may possibly be more effective as the way things were being done before. In this case, bagged milk may seem odd and different, but in fact it reduces waste and the bags may be reused.

Long story short, bagged milk is awesome :)
