Alright, I tried to avoid quoting you directly for various reasons, but I couldn't ignore this (in my own opinion, rather stupid) comment. While I won't detract from the idea grabbing 20 new 'single-use' bags everytime you go to the supermarket etc (personally I find grabbing my reuseable ones on my way out just as convienent) what germs are you expect to foster on your plastic bags?
Seeing as the vast majority of food comes pre-packed, none of it is coming into contact with your carrier bags their is nothing on/in them to go mouldy and allow germs to grow to the extent that it would severely impact you. Seeing as plastic doesn't biodegrable quickly or very effectivey, what other germs are you expecting to find on them other than your own that could repulse you so much?
