I'm old enough to remember the cloth towel that was dispensed on a roll, and you'd yank on it to receive a clean panel of it for wiping your hands.

This was closely associated with restroom tokens and powdered gritty pink Borax soap which came in a dispenser you pumped from the bottom with your hand.

The environmentalists didn’t like paper grocery bags because they “destroyed trees” so they forced plastic grocery bags on us.

Now they don’t like the litter from plastic grocery bags so they’ve come up with another scheme ..... that won’t work and will make things worse.
