The packers at our supermarkets have been told that meat
goes into a separate bag, but they haven't been told why,
it's a rule to be blindly followed, like walking into the
teeth of the traffic even when you have no chance at all of
getting out of the way when you see a car coming -- so the
lunch meat and the pork chops go into the same bag.
Fortunately, all of them package everything in sealed
containers -- not just shrink wrapped, but heat-sealed bags
-- so it doesn't really matter.
Still, I prefer Aldi, where I can pack my own bags, sorting
into "garage" and "kitchen" as I do so. Or pack my trunk,
as I did once when I forgot to take my bags.
I'm not at all sure how that happened, since I store my bags
in the trunk. DH was with me, which may have had something
to do with it.
Many is the time when I parked my cart outside the restroom
(so it wouldn't be unpacked and put away) and ran back out
to the car for my bags.
