I wonder how the refillable plastic 5 gallons are with plastic, we need to go back when they were made of glass
Someone needs to invent soft glass that doesnt break so easily. Surely it cant be that hard.
It’s not too hard, but it’s more costly, and consumers want a cheap as possible.
Borosilicate glass fits the ticket (what pyrex is made of) but is quite expensive.
Cartons of water exist but I guess they have a coating inside maybe?
