just remember which side is the opening, or you'll accidentally tear the wrong side

Put the top in between your hands held flat like you're praying, then move them back and forth in opposite directions like you've just came up with an evil plan, if that doesn't work, then you're holding the bottom, so just do it to the other end.

Theres no reason to put most produce in bags. I don't know why people are obsessed with plastic. People even put bananas in bags... Theyre already bagged!

I have zero issue opening these bags but for some reason my mom and siblings really struggle.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I spent almost 10 mins trying to open one and finally gave up and just put my veggies right into the basket 😂

FYI, reusable produce bags exist!

Just stretch the bag carefully a bit on opening. Works every time! Simple.

Same with trying to peel double-sided tape

Most of the produce bags here have handles. I found that the meeting place where the "handle" meets the "bag" to be the easiest spot to separate. I just rub the bag between my fingers in that area and usually it only takes a single rub for it to separate.

I was at my local walmart today...

The struggle is real.

...the easiest way to open these IME, is to lightly lick your thumb and the neighboring finger. This makes the respective sides of the bag stick to them for easier opening.

That's easy. Just flip it, then flip it over again, just like a USB plug.

I'd proudly and, like a snob, tell you that I've ascended beyond plastic bags by using reusable nets.

But I also keep forgetting the nets at home, so I use the plastic bags and promise myself not to forget. Only to forget again. FUCK.

I put the bag between my palms and rub back and forth a bunch of times. It works as long as you have both hands free (and you have two hands).

Dont lick your finger, the veggies get sprayed with water. Wet your finger with the clean water and the bag will open for you. Just like everything else in this life: Its better when its wetter.

Bring your own reusable bag.

Hold the middle of the side that is supposed to open between your pointer finger and thumb and slide them in opposite directions. It almost always works for me :D

The plastic bag is folded on the sides. I have much more success if I start by pulling there, than attacking the opening directly. Hard to explain but you'll figure it out.

You guys put all the fresh stuff in plastic bags? Why not just straight into the shopping bag?

Gently blowing on the opening sometimes works

I aggressively rub the side that's meant to open between my fingers and typically that opens it a bit, and from there you just try to separate that while doing the bag open wave.
