Paper milk cartons can eliminate the plastic lid.
What does "single use" mean? I understand in the context of fast food
cups but how about less common items like those 4 liter milk jugs I
get my milk in (and generally put out each week in the recycling bin)
or similar such items - for instance my cheddar comes wrapped in
plastic and once the cheese is eaten, that plastic wrapper isn't
getting used again <grin>
He is explicitly including milk and juice, suggesting we go back to
glass.

Plastic jugs don't break as often, although I suppose you could get
one to do so if you tried hard enough.
