New Jugs Save Moolah

The redesign of that Gargantuan-Gallon-Big O'Jug of Milk boasts new features of better price, enviro-friendlier and cuts costs.

Yea, a little company looks at a simple idea and decided to make a small change to improve the overall production and cost of their product. Sounds like a great idea. You would think that people would be lining up for this redesign.

Ahh, no....turns out the buyers are giving this a less than happy reception. Who knew that the shape of the container was such a major factor in their pour-emotion scale?

The new square-ish shape is a bit awkward with it's Beta Testing Users. Milk pourers everywhere should exercise extreme caution in their expectations. I am sure there will soon be government pouring warnings added to the package.

Not too worry, stores that carry the container are offering pouring technique training.

Great, now I gotta "re-learn" how to pour milk?

I guess this new container also defies The Laws of Liquid and Physics.
