Same thing in Poland. I’m very surprised that this is not a common standard. I saw rage same in Austria, Italy… basically EU countries. I’m very surprised this is not common in US which is usually known as a place where many retail technologies have emerged. By the way, the plastic bag must not be wasted. If I take a few bananas I do not take any plastic bag, I just put a sticker on one of them, and then drop them all into bag area after scanning so that total weight matches expected. Same applies to many fruits which do not need a separate plastic bag (apples, oranges, …).
