Haha…I love how you phrase that. Unless we don’t have a functioning immune system I guess we should be able to deal with a few microbes. Organ transplant certainly puts it on awhile different plane…

I used Duck Tape with a courtesy tab to keep mine shut. Never underestimate the power of Duck Tape!

where is it that they have a deposit like that? very impressive if true- but what is the point really?

I think a rubber band would hold it closed just fine. I also think there’s nothing wrong with a few ambient microbes, unless you are using this container to hold an organ for transplantation.

I don’t know about your area, but in mine, those jugs have a $2 deposit. $2 can buy a much better sandwich container.

Hate to be the science nerd in the room, but plastic is actually quite porous on a microscopic level. The nooks and crannies do an excellent job of holding onto bits of whatever was in contact with it, which means this repurposing of a milk container is providing a growing medium for whatever bacteria it accumulates. This is why it’s generally a bad idea to re-use plastic bags, even if you’ve rinsed them out.
