reusable grocery bags
« on: May 10, 2012, 05:38:54 pm »
do you reward your readers usable grocery bags? I never thought about it until some girls soccer team in Beaverton Oregon all got sick from the use of a reusable grocery bag! So be sure you wore your reusable grocery bags every now and then if they're plastic you can use before disinfecting wipe on them but be sure to be careful especially view put raw meat in one that it don't get infected and give you sick or other people you know sick/1

I ALWAYS USE reusable bags, but I have never thought of cleaning any out unless some food has spilled in them that I see.  But, now I am thinking I had better wipe them out once in a while!.

I disinfect my reusable bags once a week and that way I know they are safe. If we are talking about zip lock baggies, I think they should be thrown away if you use them for any kind of meat storage.

i tend to get plastic bags from the store, and then reuse them for some other purpose... Usually I use them as poo bags for cleaning up after my dog.

I use a mix of plastic bags from the grocery store and cloth bags that I re-use.  The plastic bags that I get, I always return to the store to recycle.

I have been getting plastic bags at the store lately because it is possible to reuse them in different ways, such as creating plarn and knitting with them. I have a lot of reusable bags, but I don't usually use them for food.
