Nop, when we want to reuse, we use containers, bags are for one-time use.

There is an exception, we have special treathed bags for storage of vegetables and fruits. The coating slows down ripening and the bags can be wased about 20x before the coating is gone. They usually don't last that long. Alas, the store that had them stopped with them, as most people just threw them away after a singele usage. (So we try to extend their lifespan, even without coating they're useful)

Ziplog bags are used for items where we want to use a few at a time of, instead of all at once, like storing carrots for us or the guniea pigs.

They wouldn't like that. Also their food shouldn't be in the bag, but in their cage... (according to them)
