In Mexico, the Bag That Holds All the Other Bags
"México es que una bolsa del mandado termine guardando de todo… menos mandado."
When a grocery bag ends up holding everything, except groceries.
Nothing gets thrown away if it still has another life.
Shopping bags become storage. Glass jars become drinking glasses. Ice cream containers become leftovers.
It's practical. It's resourceful.
And somehow, every Mexican knows exactly which bag contains the bags.
