Milk in bag...

This is a bag of milk. Yes, we have milk in bags too. But instead of dairy milk, ours is soy milk. Well, majority of the soybean available here is either from China or Canada. Say if the vendor uses soybeans imported from Canada, it's the most Canadian thing that is available here. Soybean from Canada, Milk in bag... Eh! (and I'm becoming an annoying faux Canadian)

Asians are somewhat lactose intolerant. (Well, the far eastern. Southern Asian like milk so much.) A friend of mine Vert pomme, is lactose intolerant. She envy others who could drink milk. Freshly made soy milk is my favourite. It's warm, and silky. I don't really give a d**n about the phyto-estrogen crap. It's rich in protein and cheap. Not that I don't like dairy milk, it's a bit expensive here. And when it comes to dairy milk, I would drink either full cream, fresh or skimmed. Low-fat milk are sweet here. To compensate the lack of cream I reckon.

Unlike it's Canadian counterpart, our milk in bag doesn't need a special jug to dispense the milk. We would just pour out the whole thing into a big mug. As for Canadian milk, one have to snip a corner of the bag, put the bag into a jug and pour.

(p/s TPN looks like milk too, in a bag... my late Aunt was fed through TPN. Cancer)
