Changing consumer habits could spell the end of bagged milk (ottawa.ctvnews.ca)

"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.

Having had the cheese available in America, I have to say better grasses makes better cheese.

I refute your assessment of Canadian cheese, my good man, and I shall be available by the flagpole after recess. It's a duel.

Oh we're definitely better than America but we should be able to match up against Europe.

Have you ever tried Beacher's cheese? You should try some good quality cheese before dismissing all American made cheese.

I've actually had some splendid American cheese but it's quite the rarity. Grafton is a solid brand and some of their aged cheddars are amazing.
