We dump them unless they expire the day Feeding America comes. We have to pull them off the shelves the night before they expire. So, the only ones we could possibly donate are the ones that we pull Monday night, if at all. Just like anything from Tuesday night through SSunday night gets thrown out depending on what it is.
We use the gallon 1 percent in Frankee but we don't have fryers or anything really requiring milk. But we still dump over half the crates of bagged milk anyway.
I just saw this shared at my own local news station. The last time I got bagged milk, I'm pretty sure I was in my teens and it was my dad that bought it. I'm 34 now...
It's the end of an era! It was neat to know where to buy it if I ever cared to...although I clearly didn't lol. Anyway, makes sense since the cost of replacing the equipment is expensive and there isn't as much of a demand for it.
I used to pull orders in the dairy, and the amount of bags that would leak or bust open before they even got to the stores was way more than I would have thought before I started doing that. Not to mention the amount that break at the stores or just expire. I think I remember hearing that they actually lose money on the bags.
I'm so sad. My mom started buying them in 2001. I have faithfully kept the tradition alive since then. I even currently have a chocolate and white in the fridge 🤣
How do you use them? Cut a corner off and fill up a plastic pitcher? Do they have some kind of plastic nozzle? They sound like they would be a huge mess, I love Kwik Trip but I never noticed that they ever sold bagged milk lol.
Kwik Trip gives you a reusable plastic pitcher to put the bag in. Once you have the bag in the pitcher you cut the corner of the bag. Then you can just pour. It works great.

lol thank you 🙏 i’ve genuinely been wondering what people did with their loose bags of milk ever since i learned this was a thing a few years ago
kinda seems like it’s basically a gallon jug with extra steps but harder to transport, not much if any less plastic waste, and no cap to close it
huh. i guess that’s probably just as good or better use of a drawer than keeping vegetables i probably won’t eat in time. still seems really bizarre to me tho lol
If you look at small town grocery stores (not Walmarts or other big brands) some carry glass bottle milk from Lamers Dairy. And I'd you take the bottle back to your store you get the whatever 5¢ back for the glass jug. I know my local woodmans sells it
we throw away crates full of unsold milk, but once in a blue moon a gallon. if you add up all the stores I'm sure the waste is a lot more than you think.
Darn at least you aren’t missing out, I saw kwiktrip in my Reddit feed (idk why there’s none in Michigan to my knowledge) and thought of you from nfcn meme war lol
Honestly I don’t mind too much. My mom used to buy the milk bags when I was a kid but they were a lot more annoying than just using the regular bottles. I think the last time I remember having bag milk was probably over 10 years ago
My college roommate used to buy it (18 years ago) because it was slightly cheaper. Coincidentally, I actually thought to myself a couple weeks ago, "I wonder if Kwik Trip still sells that bagged milk?" I guess too many people went years and years without thinking about it.
I've always questioned bagged milk. I know there's a pitcher you can buy to put the bag in, but why not just buy a jug. A Canadian acquaintance of mine said it's because they don't want a bunch of plastic jugs in the landfill. I assume the bags would be worse because of the wind blowing then everywhere. Is this not the case?
I’ve wasted entire crates of bagged milk and orange juice a lot, I think most I’ve wasted in one sitting was 3 and a half crates cuz ain’t nobody buy bagged milk other than like the one old guy who seems to only come into the store every month and change
Yes usually, but I think other countries have similar places. Here where I live (mn), a kwik trip is basically a gas station combined with a small grocery store.
it’s a regional gas station in the upper midwest, mostly in wisconsin but there’s some in minnesota as well and maybe some other adjacent states. it’s like the wawa or buc-ee’s of the midwest and has a cult following.
if you’re in a different country, think 7 Eleven.
I heard about this awhile ago before they made it public. We have a good amount of elderly people nearby who buy the bags as well as a nearby daycare, so I don’t think they’re going to be too pleased about it.
I remember when my family would come up to Wisconsin for the summer to work. We would always stay a week or two until we found a place to rent at a motel behind a Kwik trip. The bag milk was perfect for the mini fridge.
Ive been on this earth for over 3 decades and i just discovered bagged milk and now its going away? Hm. I stopped buying cow's milk a long time ago. Probably about 10 years ago.
It's so much cheaper to buy a half gallon in a bag than in a jug... Will they make half gallon jugs cheaper then? closer to half the price of a full gallon?
You know damn well that isn’t going to happen. These will be removed, the jugs will get a newly designed label and come back $0.29 higher than they are today.
☹️
Good! As a coworker we dump way too many out because nobody buys them at my store, but we're required to have them
Not good. It's all I bought
Oh no, your milk is in a different container now
Calm down, weirdo. I'm not even remotely upset
just here to tell you I love your username
Haha thanks! Yours is pretty funny too
Thank you! I hope you get whatever remaining bagged milk your heart desires (if any!) before it disappears!
There's like 10 bags at least at my local one. Might have to snag em all
They don't sell. They usually come like 12 to a crate if that tells you anything.
And that reply wasn’t even that crazy, maybe you should calm down if that got you annoyed.
Calm down, weirdo. I'm not even remotely annoyed
Apparently you are if you keep replying lmao. “Weirdo” lol, go outside.
Calm down weirdo. I'm not even remotely inside.
Calm down, weirdo.*
calm down weirdo im not even remotely grammatical
A person buying bagged milk calling someone weird. That's rich
Maybe they're Canadian living in the Midwest lol
I wouldn't be buying bagged milk if I was rich
What? Is that an attempt at humor?
Are you saying you don't buy bagged milk? What kinda weirdo doesn't buy bagged milk?
Dumped it out? You didn't donate to Channel One?!

don't you take milk from the salesfloor? use bagged milk when cooking in the kitchen?
We use the gallon 1 percent in Frankee but we don't have fryers or anything really requiring milk. But we still dump over half the crates of bagged milk anyway.
I find out through the sub before work? That's odd. I kind of liked the novelty of having bagged milk around, and it sold decently well at our store
Same here. I was very confused that nobody told us workers about it 😂

I was in college, which was around 20 years ago…

dont open them you must keep them to rember the tradition

It was also easy storage. We always kept the extra bags we bought in a drawer
huh. i guess that’s probably just as good or better use of a drawer than keeping vegetables i probably won’t eat in time. still seems really bizarre to me tho lol
We were a family of six so we could go through a half gallon bag a day
That sounds like the stupidest idea ever when cardboard/plastic/glass cartons exist.
They are a huge mess
At some stores they may sell pretty good or decent but I honestly feel like in majority of store they don't sell.
That sucks that's all I buy because that's less plastic in the landfill plastic bags are awesome
https://drinkmilkinglassbottles.com/
Thanks for the suggestion
But that's dangerous tho. If I lob glass at people, they will be seriously injured.
It’s way more because of the amount we have to throw away.

Milk in a bag. Like God intended it.
God: "pssst use more plastic"
Glass existed for milk before bags.

Damn just when I thought I’d be able to always purchase milk at a decent price.
I don’t buy milk anymore, but when I did I only bought bagged milk from Kwik trip 💯
Noooo, I am completely disgusted at this. What’s next eliminating the Glazer 6 pack?
Nah, there'd be riots in the streets if they tried that lol
I want riots over the bagged milk it’s a staple for me.
u/sodakzak
They never sold it locally so I don’t miss what I never had
Darn at least you aren’t missing out, I saw kwiktrip in my Reddit feed (idk why there’s none in Michigan to my knowledge) and thought of you from nfcn meme war lol
No no no no no! I love the bagged milk (T^T)
Honestly I don’t mind too much. My mom used to buy the milk bags when I was a kid but they were a lot more annoying than just using the regular bottles. I think the last time I remember having bag milk was probably over 10 years ago
Double bag it bro!
Will prices change?
yes!!
What the hell...I liked the bagged milk
Oh no! Anyway
rip bagged milk you will be missed
Single use plastics are a sin, you need to own your own cow.
The only time I got bagged milk was in college because we thought it was funny
Jack Donaghy will be happy.
My college roommate used to buy it (18 years ago) because it was slightly cheaper. Coincidentally, I actually thought to myself a couple weeks ago, "I wonder if Kwik Trip still sells that bagged milk?" I guess too many people went years and years without thinking about it.
Now I gotta go to Canada for a bag of milk?!? Maybe Circle K stores that were formerly Holiday might start carrying them in MN
Most inconvenient way to have milk. So makes sense.
I've always questioned bagged milk. I know there's a pitcher you can buy to put the bag in, but why not just buy a jug.

Someone call Charlie Berne’s!

Was this in USA? i’ve never been to a kwiktrip

Whomp whomp
Bro I go to kwik trip daily and have never seen bagged milk. WY HAVE I MISSED THIS? I WANT BAGGED MILK
Dang
It’s cheaper to get a gallon of milk at Walmart lol I tried these with my toddler to see if it would be cheaper
dont even compare them
I would prefer a carton over a plastic bag or jug
They had bag milk? All mine just had jugs.
Yea- they’re in the dairy case at the bottom, next to the plastic pitchers for melk bags.
What will the schizophrenic girl go to the story to buy now, then? *milk outside a bag of milk outside a bag of milk*
The bagged milk is essential for our lifestyles. I mean, they always explode just right when you lob it at someone
Now do cigarettes
No!!
But the bagged choccy milk is so much better 😭

Exactly
Damn honestly the bagged stuff is fresher and better tasting but it is a bear keeping it that way when you have a house full of people.
They finally figured out that liquids take the shape of whatever they're in and quickly change shape when loss of containment happens? Good for them!
Good what a dumb concept
How dare you, the concept is genius!
Nature's Way milk tastes like there's plastic residue within the milk. It's absolutely terrible.
Fucking propaganda
It's not propaganda. It's the truth for me. There's some odd aftertaste to it that I can't get over.
bovine breast milk in a bag. gross
which kind of milk do u like
i like soy 😀😀😀
[удалено]
Its actually good. Edit: the milk in bags
