Got Milk? (A Jen Post)

So... One thing Mike forgot to touch on was Canadian milk. It doesn't come in cartons, jugs, or bottles. It comes in bags. That's right bags, like plastic bags...like the kind of bags that San Francisco has banned.

Anyhow, I learned of this back in 2003 when I first went to visits Mikes family. And it's not that Mike comes from a strange family, it's that's how it's done there. Crazy, huh?

So how do you pour a glass of milk from a plastic bag? Well, they have small pitcher made especially to hold the plastic bags. You snip off a corner of plastic w/ scissors and then you pour. It's crazy!

I have 2 theories on this:

One... the plastic bag people, the milk people, and the pitcher people all got together and formed a brilliant plan to take over the world; but only the Canucks went for it.

or

It's so cold in Canada that in the winter they can't leave their houses and milk in plastic bags can freeze so that when it's too cold to go outside the Canadians can still have strong bones that come with the calcium of milk. You know, for when they have to shovel snow and stuff.

Anyhow please feel free to share your thoughts on this phenomenon.

Milk it does a body good- pass it on.

PS - The picture below has nothing to do with milk or with this post. It's just like the cutest picture ever and I thought you all should see it.
