Aren't they already?
I got my pet meds handed to me in a paper bag and somehow managed to give myself a paper cut getting the cat into the car while holding this bag. It was the first paper cut I've had in years, and my reaction was "I wonder if this is still recyclable." Still better than plastic bags, I suppose.
This post was inspired by me wondering how I got one. I'm pretty sure it was from opening junk mail, one of the few ways I interact with paper anymore.
