== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* Played with in the ''[[D.N.Angel]]'' Anime. The main character's mother and their [[Meido|Maid]] go shopping on market day and buy a veritable mountain of different goods on sale. When you see them carrying all the bags, there is at least one leek sticking up from every bag.
* Linna is seen walking around with a bag with a baguette sticking out of it in one episode of ''[[Bubblegum Crisis]].''
* In ''[[F-Zero|F-Zero: Falcon Densetsu]]'', <s>Captain Fa-</s> Bart is seen, twice in the same episode, carrying a grocery bag with a baguette in.
* In a season 2 episode of ''[[The Familiar of Zero]]'', Siesta is seen carrying a grocery bag with a baguette and, as seen when she drops it, an apple.
* Yuuki carries a bag with a baguette in the opening of the ''[[Silent Möbius]]'' TV series.
Line 26:
* Rico carries one of these in the opening for the first season of ''[[Gunslinger Girl]]''.
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* In the 2010 Eddie Lebron fan film of ''

* Seen played straight in ''[[The Godfather]]'', at least for the oranges part. Except in this case, while the Don is buying said oranges from the fruit vendor, a bunch of thugs show up and shoot him a few times, inevitably causing him to drop the oranges.
** This is a trope in itself; the producer used oranges to 'brighten up' otherwise grim scenes and dark sets—therefore, you can find oranges in many scenes where someone dies.
* At the end of ''[[The Departed]]'', Sullivan carries one of these bags into his apartment. {{spoiler|He gets shot by Dignam, and the groceries do end up all over the floor. The original script even called for the rat that comes out to start nibbling on a fallen bagel.}}
* Dana Barret's shopping in the original ''[[Ghostbusters]]''.
* In ''[[Taken (film)|Taken]]'', Bryan uses one of these bags as camouflage to get into the Paris apartment. The only recognizable food item is not one but ''two'' baguettes; the greens look like a small ficus plant. (Evidently in France you need more than one baguette.)
** Also in the same film, Jean-Claude also carries home a baguette for dinner.
* Exaggerated in ''[[Michael Clayton]]'': Michael finds Arthur walking with a paper grocery bag filled with nothing BUT baguettes.
* April O'Neil is seen with one with a visible baguette when arriving back to her apartment in ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (film)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret Of The Ooze]]''.
* Seen in ''[[Rumble in The Bronx]]''. The baguette is even wrapped and labeled as such.
== [[Live
* [[Lampshaded]] in ''[[Dharma and Greg]]'': One episode mentions that every time Greg does the groceries he buys a baguette, even though no one eats it.
* In ''[[Space Precinct]]'', we see that three-eyed aliens in the future still fill their shopping bags with that mandatory baguette.
* Turns up in ''[[Lovejoy]]'',
* Averted in the ''[[Highlander (TV series)|Highlander]]''
* In the ''[[Modern Family]]'' episode "Baby On Board

* [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] by ''[[Kingdom of Loathing]]'' with the item [http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Stale_baguette "Stale baguette"]. Eating one results in a minor [[Global Currency|Meat]] loss, since anybody with the aforementioned baguette is bound to get robbed in a dark alley shortly after purchase.
* Penelo features a fantasy version in {{spoiler|the finale of}} ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]''
Line 58 ⟶ 55:
* Some of the anti-Resistance propaganda posters in ''[[City of Heroes]]'' feature a woman dropping a bag of ISO Standard Urban Groceries.
== [[Web
* The [http://www.sainsburys.co.uk Sainsbury's] Online Shopper logo is a plastic bag showing, among other indistinguishable packaging, a french loaf, a carton of orange juice, bananas and some kind of lettuce or fresh herbs.▼
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Mr. Krabs brings home such a bag in the ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' episode "Wet Painters" (see picture).
* You will at least see Lois in ''[[Family Guy]]'' heading home with grocery bags like this such as the episode "Brian In Love" when she unloads the bags out of her car before being hose sprayed by Peter.
* Brown paper grocery bags with baguettes can be seen in ''[[King of the Hill]]'' episode "A Rover Runs Through It".
== [[Other Media]] ==
* Much of the pin-up work of Art Frahm concerns the unusual theme of women's panties dropping in a number of improbably contrived situations. Most of these occur, for some reason, in the vicinity of a Standard Urban Grocery bag, and, more specifically, in the vicinity of a Standard Urban Grocery Bag containing ''celery''. Lileks has more on the sinister connection
