We then use those 'throw-away' bags until destruction, often for dirty things which I would not want to place in any other kinds of (food) bag. <br /><br />I suspect the majority of throw away bag users are doing just that of course (throwing them away), but the story is not always clear cut.<br /><br />How about a deposit system? Shops supply standard containers which cost £0.50 each. You pay for them but get a refund when you return them. This avoids the problems of people having to remember their pots/bags etc. Of course I cannot think about all the 'health-and-safety' problems that Britain seems hell bent on introducing - or should I perhaps say hiding behind?<br /><br />The domestos 99.9% generation will take years to accept that fruit and veg which generally grows outside of sealed plastic bags, could be any where near safe to eat if sold outside of sealed plastic bags!Matthew Wastellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00378236893209736319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-23337325842886329142010-03-04T18:24:58.947+00:002010-03-04T18:24:58.947+00:00Thanks for this recipe, I shall give it a go.
