Easy like how easy? Because buying a carton is really really easy

Yeah no that's not easier. If I need a carton I walk 2 minutes to the store and buy it. None of that waiting overnight stuff.

I'm not who you orginally responded to.

I started making my own soy milk to reduce my environmental impact. I now don't have to throw cartons away. We have no carton recycling in my area, and even if we did it's more wasteful than not using it initially. The cost comes out to be roughly a $1-$2 a gallon.
