“Consumption of milk per capita has gone down every year over the last 30 years,” says Sylvain Charlebois, director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University. “Actually, it’s gone down by more than 20 per cent since 2015.”

I dont think any liquids are sold in cardboard. It woukd leak. Usually its lined with plastic, so no longer compostable.
