Wash poop out of about 10 diapers and the throw-away society starts looking real good.

You do wash those bags, don't you? If not how much does a case of food poisoning cost?
Hell maybe you don't wash them. Maybe darwin is already on this thing.
Why would I wash them? There is no raw food touching them. It's not like I hand the bag to the deli clerk and they just plop the lunchmeat straight into it.

Some of us are not as easily brain-washed as others.
We work off logic and rational thinking, not pure irrational emotion.

Sammy is not one of the above.

The answer is that you do not need to wash them very often and when you do wash them, the addition to the regular laundry load is nil.

I had read that the disposable plastic bags were formulated to degrade quickly in the environment. Must be true because many of them never made it into the house intact. So they doubled up on them.

Brown paper bags are fine but they might as well not put any handles on them.

Just like they were in the 50's.

Uh, all due respect to sir Baz... but pretty sure I have seen this before ergo he didn't write it.

And yeah I used to dump oil in a hole in the back yard....

And our great grandparents used to poop in a hole in the back yard...

We have found better ways to do both things...
