New Green Milk Jug Design Cuts Costs But Is Difficult to Pour
Where is milk 2.58 a gallon? Wow! We're paying 4 something per! 6.99 for organic! I don't drink it but my wife does. I'd like to see bottles like that for spring water.

It's a paisley silk scarf. I wasn't thinking islamists. I'd have pulled the ad cause she looks goofy.

just try to find real cheese slices. There's 20 varieties of chesse food and chesse product but 1 or 2 of real cheese!

She's annoying, her voice is fingernails on the chalkboard thing but one thing I'll say she has enthusiasm which most of the FN "chefs" don't have. One that I really like is Giada DiLaurentiis. She enjoys what she does and seems to make those dishes look easy! As far as the recipes goes, I troll for those on FN's website.
Why do people think Whole Foods is so expensive?
I don't have a whole foods near me in NH, but I do have a place called Amarket. Their prices are comparable to our local Hannafords market which is carrying more and more organic and "all natural" products. I go to Amarket for odd things which nobody else has and Hannafords for the produce and other stuff and a local farm for beef and poultry. When summer comes I'll be going to some farmer's matkets for the poultry. Now if I can only find a source for or a strategy to grow spices and herbs I'll be all set!
Grounds for Divorce: Sexist Vintage Folger's Coffee Commercial
I don't watch much mainstream TV because of the commercials. When I do (football season) I do notice that they are patronizing and demeaning. And ten times an hour of the same pitch gets wearying. But I suppose the lemmings wouldn't know what they're supposed to buy without them! ;)

New Green Milk Jug Design Cuts Costs But Is Difficult to Pour
You know, while I was pouring milk (without spilling any) from the container I got at Sam's Club, I wondered - Did Costco lower the price any from before they switched containers? You know, now that there isn't all that (expensive) heavy duty cardboard between flats of containers on a pallet?
I bought the massive, ill designed Costco container twice. That was all it took. Now milk is on my Sam's list vs. my Costco list.

I don't get to Costco regularly, but I remember buying these and not liking them. I can't remember why. It wasn't just the pouring issue (although if you had little kids trying to pour milk, I could see it being a problem). Maybe it was taller and I had to adjust the shelves in the fridge to make them fit? Or maybe it was trying to hold two of them in one hand? I guess I didn't think about it again because my Costco is far enough away that I only go a few times a year. I would still buy the milk if it saved me a lot of money.

Yea, saw this in the paper yesterday and immediately thought, "uh, those people are idiots to complain about cheaper milk." That was probably a tad harsh, but it's crazy that people would buy a more expensive product because they cannot pour from the new one. Uh... right.

Tried it once and hated it...But the lower cost will probably have me trying it again

I've seen this type of container at my Costco for the last two years. The family have difficulties pouring milk, and drinking it out of the container. I don't seem to have problems pouring it myself, and drinking from the container? I'm against it anyways.

we've been getting our milk in this type of jug at the coffee shop where I work. I dont see a problem with it. its alot more convient to fit in the fridge and pouring is really not that different. People will always complain about anything "new" that just seems to be the way we are. Eventually the grippers will put on their big girl panties and deal with it. ;)

My dad makes the most amazing preserved vegetables. My grandmother taught him and its a family secret. He won't even tell my mom and my mom has to BEG him to make it. He keeps it in a jar for a few days for the best flavor, but my sister and I would sneak bites that by the time it's supposed to be ready, it's half eaten. It has chinese cabbages, cucumbers, baby onions, and carrots. It sweet, crunchy, sour, spicy (like kimchi! but not red), and salty. The mouth is confused at first, but the stomach is always happy. (I miss my dad!).

It is sorta strange, but IBC rootbeer always reminds me of my dad. As a treat to us kids, once in a while he would stop at the grocery store after work and buy IBC root beer and Vanilla ice cream as a treat for us kids (root beer floats)
