With New York’s outlawing of plastic bags statewide, a new spotlight has been put on the issue of waste and the many ways we can cut down. As a result, we’re seeing our weekly trips to the grocery store in a new way. No longer can the guilt of unloading upwards of 10 sacks filled with bread, pasta, wine–you know, the essentials–be quelled by stashing the bags away under the kitchen sink for future use in the case of a dog-related emergency (we’ll leave the details of that out of here). However, we’re not mourning. Rather, we’re celebrating the opportunity to bring a new tote into our lives in the name of being eco-friendly.
