Comment on Can Reusable Grocery Bags Make You Sick? by admin

My bags stay in the trunk of my car and are only used for groceries. I don’t wash them out with bleach each time. I think that’s going a bit far.

As for chemicals getting mixed up, I suppose that small amounts of dish soap, cat litter, etc must come in contact with each other in grocery carts and other areas of the store. When something spills, it needs to be cleaned up.

There must be some middle ground. We should be able to clean up when there’s a need (or maybe proactively) without using disposable everything.

As far as working with other people’s bags goes, I think you just have to wash your hands frequently. There are a lot of jobs where you come into contact with less than sterile things, and they just wash their hands a lot.

do you wash your bags in bleach after each use? do you have cats or dogs around your bags? do your children use the bags? do you mix chemicals in your bags with any kind of food? if you answered no to any of those above, you could be making other people ill with your bags….think about the cashier that asks you how you want your bags and most people say i dont care fill them up. i always ask you want me to mix chemicals with food? customer says: sure their packaged good. so example is: diswasher soap always leaks out the bottom of the box, sure mix it with my kids oranges, wake up people your going to make new dieases in the world for your family and the cashiers and all the customers you walk by in any store with your i dont care bags.

to all the millions of people that think that using the bags are good. well i work as a cashier at walmart and any canvas, cotton etc.. are bad. people do not care what you put in the bags, i ask the customer if they want me to mix chemicals with any food they say fill it up i dont care. even like mixing a box of dish soap with meat. people make me sick when the bring in their bags full of dog or cat hair, i repeatable have a woman who brings in her urine infested cat bags, a man who brings in his grease covered white bags, us cashiers are not allowed to refuse the bags, their fore we get sick. people wake up your going to make the world sick, a new diease will spring out of these re-usable bags. i have asthma, and have been put in the hospital more than once because of these diease bags. who is going to pay for my bills? us as cashiers have seen mold, dirty diapers, blood, cat urine, grease, pet hair, pet dander, mouse tirds, dirt, human hair, toilet paper from runny noses, bandadeswith blood and puss. think people are you really helping the envoriment or are you going to cause the world a new dieases.? the bags need to be pure white and washed after every use with bleach or every customer needs to bag their own groceries so the cashier and other customers can stay healthy.
