first in love with Red China, now seeking to wrench the pints of milk out of the hands of English children.
In all seriousness, one of the results of forced metricization in Canada was the transfer of a great deal of milk from glass bottles to cardboard; it was less expensive to shift to cardboard than another size of bottle. And we all ought to know that milk tastes better from the bottle than from the box.
