It may not be hard, but man do I work it.
Jokes aside yeah I reuse my milk jugs to refill with tap water… And forget to replace it with a new one. So I use a milk jug for water for about a year, then remember to swap it out. So it is pretty structurally sound. (Though it may be leaking chemicals into my water … idk)
Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs
QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 1 week agothe container isnt very hard, it’s pretty thin but I’ve never had one break. It’s sold at grocery stores in the US (idk about others) and I have never seen any other kind of packaging. Here’s an image that’s essentially what the milk section at my local Walmart looks like:
It really depends how long it will last because sometimes my family will go through two a week and other times it’ll stay there for a couple weeks before being thrown out. In general I’d say about one gallon a week for 5 people.
What kind of container does milk come in from where you live?

I can confirm they do actually break quite easily… uh, from experience. They don’t shatter, at least, you just end up with very leaky milk and a grocery store worker disappointed in you.
