Fine living: Green alternative to plastic produce bags

ISN'T IT ODD that we're encouraged to bring reusable shopping bags from home to the grocery store, but there aren't any alternatives to all those plastic bags in the produce department or the bulk bin section? Marin native Andrea Vincent thought so, too, so she came up with alternative and it debuts at all Mollie Stone's markets next week.

I will take a clean sterile plastic bag before people start brining their dirty unwashed veggiebed in to my store. You take it home place it on the unwashed counter of your home...then you go to my store pick up produce place it in your container weigh it and remove it because it is to much and then my daughter gets sick.

GROSS! I can see reducing shopping bags but what you are promoting is just gross.

I use biobags for my produce, it keeps things fresher for a lot longer and when I am done with it, it can be safely tossed into my compost and turned back into dirt for my garden - I also use biobags when I walk my dog - great stuff
