Boozy Little Boxes

By Ron Nurwisah, Boy Reporter

2006_4_11tetrapak.gifLast year we first saw the very cute French Rabbit wines packaged in one litre tetra pak boxes not too different than juice boxes (pictured here). Then it dawned on us, why not little 250mL single serving tetra paks? Well our drunken prayers have been answered. The LCBO will apparently be stocking single serving tetra pak wines in a four pack. Perfect for when you want a bit of wine with your brown bag lunch, not that we condone drinking at work.

    i thought they were cute too, and recyclable, til I read Gord Perks’ piece on them: http://www.eye.net/eye/issue/issue_03.02.06/city/enviro.html

    Oh, this will go over well. I thought it was a juice box mom, I swear! Why did you put the tetra pak wine in the same cupboard as my snack packs.

    Awful Wine, Awful packaging. When is the LCBO going to actually stock some decent wine for reasonable prices? Even Better, when is the market going to open up so we can start importing better qualty products?

    Kids everywhere will suddenly be stumbling all over the schoolyard because their parents mixed up the “adult” juice boxes with the kiddies’ drinks. This is the most brilliant idea ever. Well, aside from how ghetto it really is when you think about drinking wine out of a juicebox.
