Yay -  you’ve mastered the art of using reusable bags in your local food market. But, it’s time to break the habit of using those handy but highly wasteful store-provided plastic bags for produce and bulk items. I hope you’re buying in bulk – it saves you money and keeps wasteful packaging out of landfills.

The options below include ways to cart home your fresh greens as well as nuts, beans, rice (option 2) and everything nice you buy in bulk. You can easily tuck these lightweight but durable ditties inside your reusable shopping bag so you’ll always have them on hand.
