C’est très étrange

Sometimes Canada is so much like Australia it's like I hardly left. But sometimes, occasionally, they are so fucking weird...

Wot. How do they like... seal it after use?

[ittykat]

They transfer it into jugs or other holding containers. Each big 4L bag has three smaller bags in it.

But it's still so weird.

[xxxkbunnies]

Well... at least it's environmentally sound. Sorta.

[ittykat]

I think that's their reasoning for it.

But then why have sugar in cartons?

[tobinsguide]

We also have milk in cartons! All my milk comes in cartons! Although when I was growing up, it was all about the bags. And actually .. I didn't know sugar came in cartons. The sugar I have in my kitchen is in a bag.

[ittykat]

Yes, to be fair there is also milk in cartons in the supermarket. But the fact you have milk in bags at all is weird.

And perhaps the sugar in Quebec is just strange, like the rest of Quebec.

[betsybookwyrm]

And this is Quebec, so everything's doubly weird. Remember that.

[ittykat]

S'true.

[ittykat]

S'Luna!

Sorry, couldn't help myself. Everyone loves Luna.

And it is very true indeed.

[betsybookwyrm]

...oops. That was me.

S'pose that was bound to happen at some point or other...

(I can pretend to be Kathy! Muahaha...)

Our milk when I was in school was in pouches - and that was in the US. I remember when they introduced them. You had to hold them a certain way to punch the little straw into it so it didn't explode.

But I'd never seen that much milk in a pouch before... o.O

[ittykat]

Little pouches is okay. 4L pouches is pushing it.

[guiltyschu]

WTF. Hahahahaha. That's shocking and amazing and I immediately told my family, who raced over for a look and are now equally shocked and amazed.

[ittykat]

It's very weird to hold. So weird. SO WEIRD.
