خلفية ثقافية
Slovaks often buy milk in 1-liter tetrahedral or rectangular cartons. It is common to see people carrying a whole plastic-wrapped pack of 6 or 12 cartons if there is a sale (akcia). Mliekomaty (milk machines) are popular. You bring your own glass bottle and buy fresh milk that hasn't been processed as much as supermarket milk. In some villages, you can still buy milk 'z dvora' (from the yard), meaning directly from a neighbor who owns a cow. Milk is essential for 'biela káva' (white coffee), which is often served to children or with breakfast pastries like 'lúpačka'.
