Review on 🗑️ Norpro 870 - 100% Compostable Bags, Grey (50 Count) by Laura Bates

We have been using these bags for many years and have had virtually no breakage problems but for some reason the quality has deteriorated. We've tried all sorts of methods to keep them intact (only put in soft foods, like old raspberries, don't fill the jar to put pressure on the sides, barely fill the pouch, etc.), but they still break. . . . When I first bought them, they didn't break as often in the pot as they do now, and most came out unscathed. We bought our last roll in December and I'm wondering if they will decompose on the roll. Most brands I see recommend using within a year, so we're definitely within that time frame. Maybe they should have an expiration date. I love our Norpro pitcher and the idea of composting, but it boils down to being willing to look at another brand.
