I always put meat in a clear plastic bag so not to worry about any problems. People can get sick from raw meat/juices.
I recycle those same plastic bags.
Why aren’t we given a choice?

Because those plastic bags--and those plastic water bottles, by the way--can only be recycled once, twice at the most. After that they end up in the land fill unless some enterprising company can figure out how to make benches or playground equipment out of them.
Don't kid yourself about recycling. It doesn't really work. Reducing and reusing is the way to go.
