I launder mine frequently

Phew! LOL.

Forget to use them.

We have had these bag's for a long time BUT we always for get to use them. Does anyone have any tricks help my wife and I remember to use them?

EWW!

I have a few and wash them regularly. Although I am not sure how effective that is for "saving". I often get my meats in paper, we burn the paper in the bonfire and use the bags for other things.

Grrrr I can't get the video

Grrrr I can't get the video to play it keeps Freezing...but by the title and comments sounds like I need to wash my bags. thanks for the info :D

Ewwwww... thanks for posting- I knew I should wash them I just never remember too- will do it tonight!

ugh

ugh! I heard about this on another site. I'm definitely going to start washing mine. I use them for weekly CSA pickups so I put produce directly in them.

Revelation!

Never thought about that - but it makes such sense. I will definitely be getting out my Clorox wipes to clean out my grocery tote bags!

Blech

I try to wash mine, but sometimes I forget to... I'm going to try and make this an every grocery shopping trip thing from now on.

Holy cow...

Now I'm going to be paranoid! LoL

eeek...

never thought about it. Gross gross...I agree with the person that said they may switch to plastic for meats...I think I will be also.

I'm a grub

I don't ever remember washing mine.

Totally makes sense. I

Totally makes sense. I rarely wash mine. :P

OK - that totally grossed me

OK - that totally grossed me out. If I ever go green with my grocery bags, I'd love to buy some of those really roomy canvas ones that I see on Etsy.

I knew about this as I had

I knew about this as I had hamburger meat leak into one of the bags before. I may go back to plastic just for the raw meats and use the cloth for all the rest. At least the plastic wont leak the juices into the car.

Off to wash my bags . . .

It never even occurred to me. I have a big load of green bags to wash :)
