Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs
moonshadow@slrpnk.net 4 hours agoI’ve never seen a glass bottle of milk outside of old movies, around here it’s plastic jugs and the “fancy” stuff comes in cartons
So this is how I find out I’m poor…

A lot of the glass bottle companies also recycle the bottles, so that you can swap your existing glass bottle for a new bottle and they’ll take your old one back. It adds a little bit of logistical complication to the stores that deal with it, but it could be useful if you’re really trying to reduce plastic usage and you drink a lot of milk.

We have one particular brand here that does “Milk, ice cream & more” that has their milk in glass bottles. It’s this ridiculous super premium thick milk, I get some of the chocolate sometimes.
I think it’s about $6per (half gallon/4pint) which is considerably more than average but it’s like drinking chocolate ice cream.
