How can I carry my arugula without a plastic bag?
Maybe it’s because I’m a gardener, but it doesn’t bother me to toss veggies all naked into a cloth bag with other stuff. When I get home, I put the veggies into semi-porous, reusable green plastic bags (Evert-Fresh). The bags seem to keep produce fresher than regular plastic and are sturdy & easy to wash.
Google corn starch bags – they look like normal freezer bags but are supposed to be 100% biodegradable (though there could be other issues if people start using them in huge quantities to replace plastic bags – rising corn prices, the diversion of crops away from feeding people and towards packaging etc.
