**💼 "Paper or Plastic?" No Longer a Question in California—Say Goodbye to Plastic Bags for Good! 🛒💥**

-

 

🥳 *The plastic bag has finally lost the battle!* Starting in 2026, California is kicking them out of grocery stores for good, and **Gov. Gavin Newsom** just made it official by signing a new law that bans **ALL plastic shopping bags** statewide. Yep, even those "reusable" thicker ones that somehow found their way into everyone’s *car trunk black hole*. 🚗🛍️


Gone are the days of the classic checkout line showdown: *“Paper or plastic?”* 🥊 Instead, starting in 2026, cashiers will simply say, "Paper or…paper?" 🍃 And if you forget your reusable tote bags (again), don’t worry—you’ll just be joining the club of everyone awkwardly clutching 10 items in their arms because you refuse to pay for a paper bag. 🙃


**📜 How Did We Get Here?**


California banned thin plastic bags back in 2016 (so long, produce bags that tear if you breathe on them wrong! 🌬️), but clever companies just started cranking out thicker plastic ones and slapping the word "reusable" on them like it was a magical eco-pass. 🧙‍♂️ Spoiler: *No one was reusing them!* 🙄 People were trashing them just like the thin ones, leading to *more* plastic ending up in landfills.


🧠 **State Sen. Catherine Blakespear** dropped the hammer on this bag mess, revealing that the average Californian went from tossing 8 pounds of plastic bags a year in 2004 to 11 pounds by 2021. 📈 *That's not exactly progress, folks!*


**💡 The New Law in a Nutshell:**

- **All plastic bags** (yes, even the "reusable" ones) will be **banned** in 2026. ❌🛍️

- Shoppers will be offered *only* paper bags at checkout if they forget to BYOB (bring your own bag). 🛒👜


**🤷‍♀️ What’s Next?**  

Well, the reusable tote industry is about to boom—so get ready to see all sorts of *fancy tote bags* that say things like "I’m saving the planet" while carrying your cereal and kale. 🌱🥣

So, to all Californians: Start stockpiling those reusable bags now! Or, you know, practice your juggling skills for when you forget and have to carry all your groceries without one. 🤹‍♀️
