Green groceries

All shops should follow Morrisons’ lead and provide paper bags for vegetables.

A customer at my supermarket put her fruit and veg directly onto the conveyor belt — potatoes, apricots, apples, carrots and tomatoes. The cashier was horrified, asking why she’d not used the bags provided. ‘Because they are plastic,’ she replied. ‘If I’d wanted food in plastic trays, or shrink-wrapped or in cling film, I’d have bought them.’

We were abroad recently and paper bags or cardboard boxes were provided for fruit and veg, bread and cakes. Why not at home? SUe NeWell, Melton
