For people used to milk in jugs, how do you keep it from spilling/bursting? - eviltoast

Hey Lemmy, I recently moved from Ontario, land of bagged milk to BC where they don’t.

So for the second time since moving, my fresh unopened 4L jug of milk made a small puddle in my fridge before opening it. Does anyone have any tricks to prevent that from happening?

Do I just have to enjoy a fresh glass right after returning from the grocery store?

    Grab one of those jugs from the garbage, fill it up with water, squeeze it. See where the water comes from, from there maybe you can figure out why it’s happening.

    I’ve had a milk jug split on the bottom along one of the “seems” or ridges after slamming it down on the counter a little too excitedly. Maybe you’re used to the force-absorbency of a soft bag and transporting/ handling it in a way that’s breaking it?
