Reuse Those Sandwich BagsReported by: Nicole Kilmer

WTVO/WQRF - By now you've probably heard how important it is to reduce the number of plastic bags that we all take home from stores, but it's also a good idea to keep gently used sandwich bags in service. people often forget that they are sturdy enough for multiple uses. If the bags become ripped or heavily soiled with greasy foods, you are better off throwing them away (they aren't recyclable in the vast majority of communities), versus expending a lot of water and soap to try and get them back into shape. However, for most uses, a quick rinse, or even shaking out crumbs, means you can use the bags over and over. -
