This Bag is Not a Toy

That warning is even more famous than Caution: Coffee May Be Hot, or whatever the cups say these days. I tried to find the warning on google. It turns out that lots of people make jokey photochops about coffee cups.

Both warnings state the obvious.

  • The Lady in Front of Me

    strawberris.JPGWhen I was younger, local strawberries came in wooden boxes. Any that were still reasonably clean would be returned on the next visit. The fruit trucks in my present locality have the local strawberries in plastic pint-sized containers. Strawberries are an impulse purchase for me. The lady that was in line in front of me yesterday knew what she had come for and she came with her own container. The hawker dumped three pints into her container and kept the plastic pints. I assume that he was going to reuse them.

    I always look to my fellow shoppers for examples of good and bad ideas.

    Most breakfast cereals come in a box that contains a plastic bag. I have mostly stopped buying breakfast cereals, but oatmeal is necessary for one family member. Quaker brand sells a box with no plastic bag, at least they do where I live.

    I had been buying Jordans because of the conservation aspect and because they taste better. Jordans has a plastic bag.

    If you have the option of buying breakfast cereals in bulk, it is worth considering.
