Summary
A man from Florida, Jack Finger, shared a video on TikTok asking why milk jugs have a circular dent in them. The dent is not for indicating spoiled milk, as some commenters believed, but rather to help maintain the bottle’s shape as the milk expands and contracts due to temperature changes during transportation. The design also improves cost efficiency and makes the plastic bottle more flexible.
