grocer

In addition to stretching household staples, some are shopping at less expensive grocers and buying pantry products on Facebook Marketplace.

Beyond Meat expanded distribution to over 2,000 Walmart locations and upscale grocer Erewhon for its Beyond Burger and Beyond Beef products.

The seven manufacturers Bonta investigated have provided billions of plastic bags used by California grocers, the attorney general said, and have certified the bags meet recycling requirements—which is required by law in the state.

The grocer is popular among shoppers for low prices, creative snacks and frozen meals all under its own brand.

Groups representing grocers and retailers such as Target and Walmart said the ordinance will increase labor costs for employers, leading to higher price tags on the shelf.
