    Do you guys cut the back and the front or just the front?

    I grew up in a front only house, but my spouse is ADAMANT that you have to cut both sides.

    I get the argument, equal pressure, but it’s just not enough volume it’s an issue. Even if you pour out the whole bag it just compresses due to the vacuum.

      Front only, our pitchers also had a slit in the front to close the bag. You’re supposed to squish most of the air out to keep it fresher and close it to keep the milk from picking up fridge smells.

      I grew up front-only too. When my wife and I got our first apartment together, we tried front and back for a bit but it didn’t do anything noticeable so we just do front. Like you said, since it’s a bag it compresses easily. If it were a hard plastic for some reason, that would be a different story. I know there’s a strong discourse on it but after trying both sides, I’m a firm believer in the front-only technique.

        So… you and your wife experimented with the front and back holes when letting the milk out, but the back didn’t do anything noticeable, so you are a firm believer in front only

      Hi, american here! Ha ha ha! I laugh at your silly milk arguements! Clearly milk is meant to be in a hard carton with a screw on top.

      realises I’m telling other countries how to do things

      remembers what america looks like right now

      …dammit! I miss the 90s when my country wasn’t a dumpster fire! I’m fine with clinton getting a blowjob from a consenting adult. I’m not fine with pedophiles and fascism.

      Have your milk however you want. Just don’t use the metric system.

        Bro, you live in a POLICE STATE. Epstein (alive), both the Clintons, Hunter Biden, and Donald Trump and beyond play a functional role as “cops.” As in, they get this bad media coverage, and the average person isn’t paying mega super close attention to both sides of each story that breaks while these people get reamed by each opposing news side, and thus the unscrupulous talk about “business” with them. And Trump is garbage, but in the same vein, that homeless guy on the light rail saying the n-word and smoking fetty is ALSO a cop. A “festival cop” is called a “pot head,” if you didn’t know.

          So, did you not read the full comment that you’re responding to?You know, the one where I made fun of americans not having the self awareness to know the country is a piece of shit, and then realized it midway through, and then gave up on defending the country, and switched to defending milk cartons instead?
