To the Western canadian who wondered if Canada has bags of chocolate milk .. a resounding YES! in ontario we have the same as white milk.. you can buy chocolate milk - buy it in 1L or 2L "boxes"/cartons OR you can buy it in 4L bags ( which is one bag that holds 3 smaller bags to fit in the reusable plastic milk jug 9 milk bag holder) It rocks! a dollar more tho than white milk in 4 L ( 3 bags in 1) . When chocolate milk in 4 L goes on sale at teh grocery stores.. ppl go nuts LOL. I remember in the 70s and 80s having the big jugs of milk.. prefer the 4 L bags of 3 - lasts longer so you dont have to go to the store everyday! Also you can freeze the bags if you want the milk to last longer ( good for ppl who dont drink a tonne of milk but want to save money and dont want their milk to go bad if they dont drink it all fast enough! ) Go Canada!! :)

Jugs of milk are actually very common in Canada. It just depends which part you are in. I live in western Canada and was quite surprised when I heard about bagged milk-here we have only jugs and cartons. I was even more surprised when I heard that bagged milk was supposedly a Canadian thing. It just goes to show you how much disparity there can be between eastern and western Canada.

I would just like to say as an American I have been buying bagged Milk since 1993. There's a chain of convenience stores called Kwik Trip that introduced Bagged Milk to there shoppers years ago. Unfortunately, even though Kwik Trip is wide spread (sometimes 4 stores to a small town) they are only found in three states MN, WI and IA. I just moved out to Michigan and can't find bagged milk anywhere. I get weird looks from people when I ask. I GREW UP ON CHEAP GOOD QUALITY MILK DANG IT!!! Where in Michigan did these people in previous post find it?

1) I find it almost as humorous as the article itself that in the comments there was a fight over the prevalence of bagged milk.

2) I live in Michigan. I know of bagged milk. And its power.

3) With this technology, which I will sell to the CIA for millions, we (the Americans) will do something so amazing that we haven't even thought of it yet.

4) This is a rather useful website, for someone living in Northern Michigan. So, gracias, amigos.

5) Hi, Canadians! *waves*

Bagged milk is only available in Ontario. The rest of the country buys milk in cartons and jugs, as does the rest of the world.

My brother drinks milk like it's going out of style so we go through like milk so darn much.
I really hate it when people leave empty or near empty bags in the container. x.x
Oh and I remember there actually being juice in bags. They came from Reid's Dairy and they were available in small take anywhere sized packages with a straw you stab it with and also a large one you put in a milk holder thingy. Mmmmm.... It was the best effing juice ever. I miss it.

Seems to be a little COTU complex going on here by everybody.

In the seventies there was bagged milk everywhere. Just because you do not have it now does not mean that it was never there.

Just because they still use bags in Ontario does not mean milk bags are "Canadian" (unless you believe that what qualifies something as Canadian).

Whoever it was that said "Statistically...blah, blah, blah...you should do some research next time": just because you say something is "statistically" empirically true does not make it so. The reality defence is no defence at all (kind of like most eastern hockey teams).

Saying "It seems a bit odd, but it seems that Canadians think that bag milk is a uniquely Canadian thing" is ironically self absorbed.

Anybody who has ever used a gallon carton knows why they tried bag milk; anybody who has ever dealt with milk bags open in the fridge knows why they were rejected (not recyclable...yeah right, the land of no deposit no return bottles).

The Centre of the universe is not where YOU live (it's where I live, dummy...)

Bag milk was phased out in most parts of the USA because the bags were not recyclable. American kids might not remember bag milk, but there certainly was a period when bag milk was common in the US.

It's kind of odd, but it seems that Canadians think that bag milk is a uniquely Canadian thing.

2010-01-10T14:26:33.761-05:00

How do you figure it creates less waste in the landfill? You can either get a .25 deposit for returning the jug or, if you are too lazy to do that, you can recycle the jug. Great article though! As an American living in Canada, I've always hated the bags of milk! It's true. I do run screaming profanities when the stupid thing collapses on itself and spills all over the counter! And yes, I do use the stupid pitcher!

Wow. You are kind of an asshole.

Bagged milk is only popular in eastern Canada. But even then, not everyone there drinks bagged milk. Plus it's rare everywhere else.

Statistically, if you were to show bagged milk to a random Canadian, most of the time they'd be confused.

It'd be nice if you'd do some research before posting.

I've got some chocolate bagged milk in my fridge RIGHT NOW, because it was on sale. I ended up seeing this post because I was googling bag milk to see where a post I just wrote, a "tutorial" for Americans, if you will, would come up in the rankings.

Hmmm... I guess the bags of milk in my fridge are lying to me then.

Thanks for the warning.
