Interesting that a statewide ban doesn't seem to be a done deal yet. Berta, at Fanny's Abarrotes, also told me that she is aware that they will not be allowed to use plastic bags as of Dec. 1. Maybe it's a local mandate?

Also, according to Berta and Luli, stores won't be able to offer plastic bags that are now used to package things like bolillos, eggs, veggies, i.e., it's not just the plastic bags with handles for carrying groceries. Thus, it goes beyond the bans that are being considered in or are in place in some U.S. cities (as I understand them anyway). I love Mexico!!
