Just buy reusable mesh bags and stop wasting plastic to protect your produce for a 20 minute car ride.
There's no way I'm getting to my car when opening a bag is this hard
"Joke about the inability to open a car because the inability to open a little bag"
;-)
The joke is the same as in the picture. As in: since I'm having so much trouble opening this bag I will never get to my car because I'll be stuck here trying to open this bag. Hope that helps!
"just put the fruit in the cart" gang represent
Right? Just gonna wash it anyway
Just dump all the loose blueberries into it.
I put them in my pockets and hope I don't bump into anyone.
You're a savage, go back to the forest.
Not all of those bags are the same.
The produce bag rolls at most stores around me are compostable now. They are also breathable and will keep the produce fresh longer when left in the bag.
The "waste" is negligible; doing some napkin math, a 20 minute car ride accounts for 300 times higher carbon footprint than a plastic produce bag (can elaborate if you want). A reused mesh bag is going to be less hygienic and less convenient, and factoring in the higher footprint of production and distribution (produce bags come in packs of thousands) you would need to get a lot of reuse out of it to even be worth it. Considering impact of disposal, as long as you live somewhere that has sane waste disposal and doesn't empty their trash into the ocean it's not going to be significant either.
It's less about the carbon and more about the fact that it doesn't degrade. It's plastic pollution.
everything that helps helps
Best part is I can carry 2-3 fully loaded reusable bags vs 12 flimsy plastic ones that split and overflow.
in sweden we have paper bags that are then used for food waste recycling at home.
