We distribute milk in plastic bags.
Whhaaa...? How does that work?
They take a cow, put it in a plastic bag, mush it around a bit, and then pull out the cow. Instant bagged milk.
I'm not sure where the difficulty lies.
You take milk. You take a plastic bag. You put the milk into the plastic bag.
(I'm not being sarcastic here, I'm genuinely flummoxed at where the conceptual problem is.)
But it's liquid in plastic bag. It can easily get squashed coming back from the shop, and how on earth do you pour it from a plastic bag without it going everywhere? There's no stability
For the first problem, you use thicker grades of plastic. If you tried to tear one of these plastic milk bags by hand you'd be ... well ... it's hard, just trust me. (Hell, they're even marginally knife-resistant. Don't ask me how I found out.)
For the second problem there are special holders custom shaped to put the bags in. Maybe a picture will help.
Wait until you find out that craft beer in China is sold in bags too.
Missed an opportunity there.
What? And remove the joy of people making that pun themselves? Nah. It's more fun letting other people have fun!
Crikey how clever! Thanks for sharing
No troubles, mate.
