That’s right folks! Costco, for whatever reason changed the tortilla strip chip bag from a perfectly recyclable bag to this piece of shit bag that you can’t recycle.
Similarly, the packaging change they made to the rotisserie chicken means me never eating that heated plastic bag garbage ever again.
It was plastic before but it was at least a tray and a covering. So the plastic at least seemed more durable and not all of it was touching the bird. Now it’s just a shitty plastic bag being warmed under a light. Disgusting.

You can’t recycle paper tainted with food oils. Or if it’s lined with plastic/wax. It gets sorted and dumped into the landfill. You can’t compost it either. Neither options are good unless it’s pure paper bag with no mixes plastic.

This right here. You couldn’t recycle this anyway. The list of what you can’t recycle is about 4 miles longer than what you can.
