Bagged milk memories

super confused American noises
- I think it's how they distribute healthcare
As a non American, what the actual fuck?
- No no no no no, NO
  Do NOT lump us in with this bullshit
  This is Canada’s sin. The US does some fucked up shit, but this is a line even we wouldn’t dare cross.
  
  I had these during kindergarten (in the 90s) in the US, but they replaced them with cartons by the time I got to first grade.
  Which is good because none of us 5 year Olds could operate them
  
  Had them in North Carolina in the 2000s
  
  This isn't a standard Canadian milk bag, we still use cartons for sizes this small
  
  Also in ky in the 2000s as well
Mmmm, microplastics. Even the tray is for single use.
Is this a Canada thing?
- That's more like this:
  And only in some parts of Canada.
  
  I recall the first time I saw these as a kid when visiting my mother in Alberta. I hated them then and I'm not sure it's changed since then. Haven't seen them in BC.
  
  We had this in Switzerland for a while, but it wasn't very popular.
  
  Milk used to be sold like this in Czechoslovakia too. Not sure about other Eastern Bloc countries.
- San Francisco used bagged milk instead of cartons at least during the late 90s and early 00s. For obvious reasons, I have no idea if that's still the case.
  
  Yeah, we all remember the great sinking of SF in 2013. Such a tragedy. Unaware folk still try to cross the golden gate bridge southbound just to drown. Google really should fix that. You can see the very peak of the transamerica building in the new bay. But it did a booming housing business for palo alto and oakland.
  Or were you referring to the gay penis milking movement of '06? That was a fun time, indeed...
Canada must be stopped
- You can pry my milk bags from my cold dead body
The high schools in Putnam County, FL were like this at least when I was a kid as a way to "keep costs low"
My dad unironically told me they added a paved road recently to show things are improving
This post smells like maple
Just as nature intended
It's spelled mammaries
Why didn't they do the poly bags with the dispenser instead.. This seems a huge waste TBH
