I'm pretty much with twobrewers. I'm from a rural area and if I'm heading down the road and finish up an apple, orange or banana it gets tossed out the window into the ditch or field. I'll do this on highways, also, as long as there is no car behind me or yards along the way. It is just natural and common sense to me. Learned from my ma I guess. I'll be sure to take a good look out for cops from now on, though. And heck if it takes 3-4 for an apple core to decompose in a field. Speaking of paper vs. plastic. So many of you seem concerned, but do any of you take the bags back in with you and reuse them? Or do you have some cloth bags that you use every time. I just started doing this (taking paper bags back to reuse). It seems to make the most sense, and County Market even gives you a couple cents back.
