Reply To: Plastic bag use plummets

Lidl’s bags are woven polypropylene, others use a different plastic (polyethylene) which is widely recycled. Polyethylene bags for life are thicker than single use bags. I believe they can be recycled, https://www.recyclenow.com/what-to-do-with/carrier-bags
but we believe it’s better to use a non-plastic bag like a morsbag. Mind you, I still have a few woven polypropylene and thick polyethylene bags from before we heard about morsbags!
