Paper bags allowed us to have shelter, clothes, food, you know the basic essentials. Pops was the Superintendent over 5 paper machines that produced brown paper. I still get them when shopping at Publix. Use them mainly for lighting charcoal in the grill and lighter pine in the fireplace.

My mom would use them to fill 1/2 way up with popcorn for my dad and brothers to go to drive in double feature.

I remember making a vest out a paper bag for a Thanksgiving play in elementary school. I dressed as an Indian...the feather variety.

My dad made microwave popcorn in them before microwave popcorn was invented. Also they were great for draining things coming out of the fry daddy.

Luggage. Paper sacks and those wax-coated frozen chicken boxes from Piggly Wiggly were what we used to haul clothes for every family trip. I never owned a suitcase until I was about 25.
True story. Visited a girlfriend’s grandma when I was in college. Somehow luggage came up in conversation and I mentioned I did not have a suitcase. She asked, “Well, son, when you travel what do you do? Put your clothes in a paper sack?” I answered, “Yes ma’am.”

My mom was a single mother of 3 at one point. She let me use paperbacks for Halloween Costumes. The realist shite ever.

I had my first job bagging groceries in 1988. This was the paper/plastic event horizon.
When they would ask if I wanted paper or plastic. I would reply. Doesn't matter I'm Bi-Sackual.
