TattoodGirl TattoodGirl: mtbr mtbr: A slab of ground up lips and arseholes just don't appeal to me  My dad was a butcher when we were kids.  ![Drink up [B-o]](./images/smilies/drinkup.gif) I worked as a butchers helper when I was a kid....hamburger is disgusting  I love regular Hamburger, the kind that has enough fat in them, that you got to leave half the grill open so you can move them off the flames from the burning grease. Other than at home I don't eat burgers either.

A plastic bin is still cleaner than an old slimy plastic bag

I really can't tell much difference between ground moose and extra lean hamburger. Caribou was something I avoided up north as they tended to be wormy.

jimzie jimzie: I think I'll be OK. I don't usually eat the bags, plastic or cloth. Well, you might carry food in them. But hopefully you're smart enough to wash your food before you eat it.

Choban Choban: Thers always a way, Wrap meat in the little bags from the produce section, Wash cloth bags after each use, common sence stuff really. My big beef is that they want to get rid of plastic but they charge you like 3-5 bucks for the cloth bags. Oh well, nothing worthwhile is ever free. But you can re-use the cloth bags for months or years, and you can use them for many, many purposes. I think $4 a bag is a perfectly acceptable pricetag to keep more plastic out of our landfills and water.

Cloth bags are $0.47 at Extra Foods in Saskatoon, which now charges five cents for plastic bags.

Brenda Brenda: Wally_Sconce Wally_Sconce: Most shopping bags are made of high density polyethelen ( HDPE) which can be easily melted down and recycled into anything ranging from pill bottles to patio furniture.
When you consider the sanitary needs and low cost requirements for grocery bags, HDPE is the perfect solution........if only we could stop people from throwing them into landfills, that is the real issue here. On the bags, there is that recycle logo, like on plastic bottles. So once, on recycling day (oh, which happens to be today...) I put a whole bag full of plastic bags in my recycling container. Well well, what do you know. THEY DIDN'T FREAKIN TAKE IT! So, the only solution IS to throw them in the garbage and use them as garbage bags. THANK you BC government, for fucking this one up. Just because something has a recycle logo on it doesn't necessrily mean your recycling program will accept it. But there are other ways to dispose of recyclable products. The Loblaws and Giant Tigers around here will take plastic bags for recycling, and the Ottawa Public Library has plastic bag dispensers filled with donated bags.

Wally_Sconce Wally_Sconce: I am saving my grocery bags, I am not sure what I'll do with them, but you can fuse several layers together with an iron on medium heat. then make re-usable shopping bags ( or in my case, probably a tarp for camping - i know its not worth the effort, but I want to try it much like a grade 5 science project)
or I'm considering making an extrusion gun and then casting the plastic into various shapes, maybe patio bricks, or structural material that I can cut in the table saw and make other things with. There's a lot of plastic benches around made of compressed garbage. If you can find a way to compress those bags into a huge brick, you could probably do anything with it.

Salmon-burgers are the best. So are swiss cheese portabello burgers, if you want a tastey meatless burger.
