Good Human Tip Of The Week - Ditch The Produce Bags.

February 2nd, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Skip the little produce plastic bags at the grocery store for bigger items. Do your bananas, oranges or other tough fruit and veggies really need their own little bag? Just throw them in the cart, we don’t eat the skins anyway - let them get dirty!

    When I go to the grocery store or the farmers market, I always have cloth produce bags inside my canvas grocery totes. They add only a negligible amount of weight, and they keep everything neat and tidy.

    Here is where I found mine:

    David, did you see this article in the NYT? I’m Irish and can definitely agree with the “it’s become socially unacceptable” comment - my parents look at you like you’ve walked in dog dirt if you bring plastic bags into their house. Key to the success of the policy - making it illegal for shop owners to either pay for the customers’ plastic bags or to change to paper.
