Not long after Israel stopped using glass milk bottles, the milk industry went to the other extreme and began marketing milk in plastic bags. So we got these plastic containers for the bags. You have to cut the corner of the bag to get the milk out. I've seen people use scissors a knife and even their teeth.
Nowadays you have a choice in milk "containers." Most stores still sell bagged milk; though our local store doesn't. There are waxed cardboard containers and plastic "jugs" of milk, too. Only the plastic is used for the lager quantities. The reason our grocer (supermarket owner,) who also owns a couple of other large stores, hates the mess the bags make. A percentage of bags always rip, making the storage area in refrigerator wet and smelly.
