    Did they get rid of them somewhere? Those were on the hamburger buns I opened last. Maybe a state like California banned plastic ties holding together plastic bags?

    Also apparently they got named by a parody site years ago and have a cool following of collectors. They call them Occlupanids. And apparently the colors are supposed to tell the day of the week the bread was baked on… ended up in a rabbit hole

      Don’t really see them in the UK any more. They tend to use a reusable sticker instead.

        They’re paper/cardboard now though.

      Can’t say whether another state banned them, but they’re still on almost all my bread products in northern California.

        They might be making them out of a plant-based plastic these days, so that they seem like traditional plastic but are actually biodegradable.
