Milk and other raw foods generally won’t spoil any faster unwrapped Vs wrapped in a fridge. Wrapping is mostly to stop odour transfer and other physical contaminants. The lid of a milk jug would be functionally similar to wrapping a glass of milk with plastic wrap.
Milk should come in bags, there I said it
Oh, hello there fellow Canadian
I’ve heard this a couple times now. Where in Canada are they doing this?

Are the bags plastic?
Leather
It’s just a live cow.
This is almond juice, not milk.
So, do you just throw the bag in the fridge? How is it stored?
Throw the 4L bag in the fridge. Remove one of the three inner 1.3 L bags, and place it in the dedicated milk bag holder that every household has:
Snip the corner, pour yourself a glass, and enjoy!

How do you close the milk bag? Surely you can’t leave it open wouldn’t that shorten the milks lifespan, right?
I was wondering the same thing. I’m guessing it just gets used fast enough. They are smaller than what most Americans buy.

Or don’t drink milk.
We used to get it in glass bottles, and the bottles would be reused (not melted down).
Just a shame getting it that way costs about 3-4 times as much as a big four pint plastic jug from Tesco.
