The Milk in Canada

(1/4) > >>

I miss it.  I haven't visited in a while and I forget what real milk tastes like.

In Canada, they sell milk in airtight sealed bags that lock in freshness from the dairy to your doorstep.  Here in America, it gets poured into a plastic jug and stopped off with a little ringed plastic twist cap that continually leaks, dries and crustifies in transit.  The bacteria formed from milk spoiling in the cap makes the rest of the batch taste like watered down soy in comparison.  Drinking milk in Canada tastes about as good as drinking it fresh from the farm here.

Unfortunately I live in Florida, notorious for having the highest pus per liter ratio in the entire country. (and possibly world, as this is a byproduct of bovine growth hormone)

Maybe Gunky can smuggle me some Canadian milk and Aero bars.  I also miss those Hostess ketchup and pickle potato chips....  oooh, and some President's Choice cola.  Just got a huge Canuk craving.

*sends lonnarin a care package from the Great White North*

We can still get it in bags? Comes in cartons and plastic jugs here too but that stuff is armored tight, it'll last like 4 days past expiary. *helps Orth make the care package*

lonnarin:
Sweet!  Thanks.  heheh, I never knew you were Canadian too Orth!

My parents moved to Florida when I was one to avoid the tax rates, but the rest of the family's all in Ontario scattered from Windsor to Cochrane and North Bay.  People are so much friendlier and more relaxed north of the border.  Down here fights get started because the wrong people dare make eye contact... One time in a bar in Windsor I accidentally bumped into a guy, making him drop his beer.  He apologized for some getting on my shoes and bought us both a round.  Had the same thing happened in Florida, I would likely have been stabbed.

Also, there seems to be a Games Workshop store for Warhammer miniatures in just about every major shopping mart.  I found ones in Mississauga, Toronto, Windsor, Burlington, North Bay.... they were EVERYWHERE.  I guess all that Roleplaying must be what's helped make them such chill people.  It's really tough to find a good game store down here, or a good comic shop.  Everything's been all Walmartized and put out of business.
