For another, you don't know whether people have separate bags or not. If they don't, and don't care, why do YOU care? Of all the things you could get worked up about, this should be pretty low on the list.

And on that note...fleas getting in my reusable bags from someone else's bags is also somewhere down around #3,000,000 of the things I would ever worry about. If that could happen, it's just as likely that you could go into a store, stand in the same spot the unclean person stood in a few minutes ago, and their fleas would hop onto you.
Fleas?? who mentioned fleas????? That is what this thread is all about....disgusting grocery bags! That is why, I am discussing it. I have seen many people, not even putting chicken in ONE plastic bag, let alone, three, as you have said. I have heard customers tell baggers, it doesn`t matter what bag you put the meat in. And who is the one really getting worked up.....not me.

You must not have read the whole thread; I was not the one who claimed that you can get fleas from reusable bags.

Many cities that had previously banned plastic single use bags also had incentives to convince customers to use their own bags. They charged customers for plastic. Many of these cities have temporarily waived those bans and fees and started supplying plastic bags again.

The OP should be happy to know that San Francisco has now banned reusable bags.
