More On Reusable Bags

Speaking of reusable bags, I just heard about the Baggu bag. It looks pretty convenient because you can stick one in your purse/diaperbag/manbag and use it for those unexpected purchases. They also give some interesting basic information in the FAQ section like:

• BUT I USE OLD PLASTIC BAGS FOR OTHER THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE, LIKE TRASH BAGS, OR PICKING UP AFTER MY DOG. WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT THOSE BAGS?
  
  Try using biodegradable and compostable kitchen & pet waste bags. When these bags break down in the landfill they won't leak toxins into the earth. We like the biobag, made from corn and printed with soy based inks. They are much more pleasant for both duties than grocery store bags, and they don't have any surprise holes.


• IS THERE AN ALTERNATIVE TO PLASTIC PRODUCE BAGS?
  
  We discovered these excellent cotton sacks called ecobags. They are made from light weight organic cotton gauze, perfect for all your fruits & veggies.


• DO GUYS USE BAGGU?
  Definitely. Real men save the planet. Baggu fits discretely in your back pocket.

I've been looking for a good alternative to the large garbage bags we currently use, so I'm going to give the Biobag a shot. We'll see what happens.
