Unveiling the Mystery: Why Are Most Shopping Bags Brown?

Many are familiar with brown shopping bags that typically come with purchases, but have you ever wondered why they are predominantly brown? A recent viral video from the @mkecopac channel revealed the reason behind brown paper shopping bags. The video explains that most paper or shopping bags are produced from recycled paper, which gives them a brown color. These bags do not undergo bleaching processes, and the brown color is actually the natural hue of wood pulp, which actually helps increase the bag's strength. Additionally, the production process makes the bags low-cost, durable, and more environmentally friendly. Brown paper bags are therefore accepted as being strong, safe, and more functional than plastic bags in many aspects.
