They've had them at the local Costco for at least a year

#2, The top is completely flat with the cap located on the corner across from the handle

#4, Hard to pour? Seems like it would be.

#5, When these first came out, there were tons of people complaining to high-heavens about how spill-prone they are when pouring, and how hard they are to handle.

What the...?

Are people really so inept that they can't pour milk from a standard jug?

#5, You have to pour it a bit more slowly or else it'll slosh all over everything. But it depends on how you hold it...but I don't feel like having a discussion about the dynamics of milk pouring right now.

#8, Wow, just like the one it was designed to replace. Brilliant.

#9, With the new jug it seems that the...err "force" of the milk being poured is greater, there's no funnel effect to quell the flow and it makes adjusting the angle difficult. And it's aggravated by the unbalanced structure of the jug.


Overall a poor apparatus for any milk pouring endeavor

I suspect that this conveyance was designed more for volumetic efficiency and stacking ability than ease of pouring.

#11, I believe that hypothesis to be the most cogent

#12, Now, a receptacle designed purely for shipping would be a perfect cube. Such a vessel will likely be forthcoming expeditiously.

#13, Indeed, but the ideal design of any container used to disperse dairy liquid should preferably be of a conical persuasion. Manufacturing a cubical liquid dispersal receptacle, as you so recently postulated, could alienate the core contingent of individuals who'd grown accustomed to the previously mentioned conical apparatus.

#14, I believe you are missing the gist of my element in the discourse. While I do not doubt the effectiveness of a spout located at the top of the vessel, please bear in mind that the godheads of the dairies, distributors, and manufacturers of said jugs all prefer the design which can most efficiently be shipped, not most efficiently be poured. While you may well argue (and in fact, do argue) that the consumers of these receptacles may be alienated by the new design, the truth is a universal jug design, if adopted, would leave customers with no choice but to adapt or go without their own homogenized mammalian glandular fluid, i.e., milk.

#16, Would it be presumptuous of me to imply that said manufacturers incorporate design elements that would allow the mammalian glandular fluid receptacles in question to function efficiently in regards to both shipping and pouring?

#17, I can think of a white liquid product that is sold in packaging very similar to that.
It's called bleach.
