Recyclables? What can and what cannot go in the clear bags?

[Taltarzac]

Scuttlebutt at the Doggie Doo Run Run had the plastic bags you get from Publix and other stores as something that the recycling could not handle. Anyone have any reliable information on this??

These bags do have a recycling symbol on them.

Can't help much but I would think that if it had the recycle emblem on it that it would be OK. Hopefully somebody will add to this!

I would suspect that Publix itself has a recyclable bin for its own plastic bags (and I'm sure for all plastic bags similar to theirs). I know that we have that at supermarkets up north.
