Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

I'm not gonna vote either because it depends on what they're being used for. Silly question if you ask me >___>

Note to hippies: Plastic shopping bags are recyclable, y'know.

Also I answer plastic to both questions: I hate carrying cash and paper shopping bags are too hard to carry.

Plastic. Less likely for the handles to break on you. And I hate it when that happens.

Plastic is recyclable, yes, but it doesn't biodegrade like most other materials. Plus, the biodegradable bags that were introduced several years ago can be said to be even more troublesome as they're not compatible with conventional recycling systems and can pretty much render entire batches of other recyclable plastic useless. It takes over a year for most to breakdown, so who knows where they will be in that time if they're littered. And well, there's a lot of contamination involved in the process with either type of bag. They say that somewhere in the middle of the ocean, there's a huge pile of floating plastic that is as big as the state of Texas.

I don't like paper, either, so that's why I opt for the reusable bag. And yes, Boyd, people do use them.

Oh yeah, Trash Island. It's actually quite a bit bigger than that now, if my memory is correct. Of course, it's much more than just plastic in there.

Oh, I forget to mention.

I'm not sure if this is Toronto or Ontario or Canada or WHAT, but plastic bags are 5 cents if you need one. It's part of the being environmentally friendly around here, I think. So, a lot more people use their own bags now, especially if it's for groceries. Why pay fifteen to twenty cents of plastic bags for groceries when you can just use more durable, bigger, reusable cloth/canvas/whatever ones? So, yeah.

If I had to pay for bags, I'd carry all of my stuff by hand :U

Several of our cities have banned plastic bags -and- charge money for paper bags. =P

The only problem with reusable cloth bags is that they can collect germs from meat if you don't wash them enough.
