Hey yenapeach, I don’t know where you’re located, but Orean in Pasadena is vegan fast food (burgers, fries, shakes!), and Native Foods in LA and other SoCal locations has fab vegan fast-food style eats available for take-out. No drive through, but call it in and it’s ready in minutes!
Burgerville is tasty, they offer veggie burgers and great shakes. I love how they highlight local produce in their stores.
I think the goods outweigh the bads here! The absence of plastic bags will force consumers to think about other options – most notably, bringing their own shopping bag along. I always do, and have surely saved thousands of bags – think of that multiplied by a whole city.
Lots of societies don’t automatically include a plastic bag for your purchases. In some it’s expected that you’ll bring your own tote. In Korea, for example, bags are not automatically given – you have to PAY an extra five or ten cents for one.
great video!
