Interesting. At Publix they keep pushing people to buy one of their
cloth bags but will otherwise put everything into plastic bags.

Those reusable cloth bags spread disease. When packages food (meat,
vegetables, etc.) leak into the cloth, then goes rancid and you put new
food into the bag on a subsequent trip, you risk all sorts of exciting
varieties of food poisoning.

Yeah, you're sppsd to put them in a washing machine after every use or two.

 Which cancels out whatever environmental benefit they supposedly have. The
water use and detergent added to the drainage is far worse for the
environment than a plastic bag sitting in a landfill.

So you've never heard of water treatment plants?  Yeah, I guess you really are that stupid.
