“Consumption of milk per capita has gone down every year over the last 30 years,” says Sylvain Charlebois, director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University. “Actually, it’s gone down by more than 20 per cent since 2015.”

While bagged milk is often cited as a unique Canadianism, it’s actually not sold west of Ontario. Those who prefer it, however, say it’s more cost efficient and some even believe it tastes better.

  • I just had a shower thought, probably dumb and I am tired, but how about pipes to deliver regular liquids/fluids? 🤔

    I think I read somewhere in Germany brewery would have pipes to bars delivering a continuous supply of beer.

    Now let’s do that with ultrafiltered and/or ultra-high-temperature milk (less prone to spoiling).

    How about adding pipes for beer (or some other alcohol or wine), cooking oil (whichever most suitable), and any other frequently used liquid I forgot?

    If spoilage is well controlled, would that be a less energy intensive distribution method?
