  • Loose small produce like beans or cherries - keeps them all together.

  • Moistened produce like kale or cilantro - keeps everything else in the bag from getting wet.

  • Produce with flaky detritus like onions or garlic - keeps pieces of peel from getting everywhere.

  • Raw meat prone to leakage - keeps other items in the bag from being exposed to potential pathogens.

They sell reusable mesh bags to help with the first scenario, but they aren't really helpful for the other 3. I also try to be mindful of not buying more reusable bags I don't need because most of those end up in landfills long before the 100/200/500/20,000 uses needed to offset the number of plastic bags you'd use otherwise.

Paper bags would help for the first and third scenarios as well, but not the other two. And single-use paper is nearly as bad.

Moistening leafy greens makes the rot faster. I hate that grocery stores do this. I've even seen them spraying bags of greens, which is just a waste of water.
