If you want to use reusable grocery bags, here’s information
which will help protect you and your loved ones from the Academy of Nutrition
and Dietetics: wash them frequently using
hot water and soap (either by hand or in your washing machine). Dry the reusable grocery bags thoroughly
before storing. Moist grocery bags
provide a haven for mold and fungi.
Lastly, don’t leave used totes in your car trunk where germs can
multiply rapidly. Whatever kind of
grocery bags you use, the experts recommend you wipe off your counter tops/kitchen
table with soap and water after grocery bags set on them.
