|'''Hollywood Rule Book''', ''Vanity Fair''}}
If a character lives in [[The City]] and has just come home from shopping, he or she will inevitably be carrying a single brown paper bag (despite the fact that in many places, paper bags must be specifically asked for these days) from which protrudes a baguette (loaf of French bread) and the greens of a bunch of carrots; neither of these will be separately wrapped or packaged.

== Anime and Manga ==▼
▲== Anime ==
* 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]].''
Line 25 ⟶ 24:
* In ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'', Keith is carrying the usual "baguette and carrots" bag when [[Meet Cute|he runs into Cis]] in episode 15. There's also an apple in there, which he offers to her.
* In episode 4 of ''[[Smile Pretty Cure]]'', Nao is carrying three grocery bags, a leek protuding from one and a daikon radish from another, when she comes across the panicking Miyuki.
* 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 ''Megaman'', Dr. Wily, before planning his revenge removes bran flakes and a roll of paper towels from a paper bag, sets them on his kitchen counter, and then sits down to think up his evil scheme...▼

Line 34 ⟶ 35:
* 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 ''[[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

▲* 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.
Line 45:
* [[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 ''[[Highlander (TV series)|Highlander]]'' 'Deadly Medicine'-Duncan was getting items for an Italian meal, so there were tomatoes, among other things. There was some bread, though, probably for garlic bread. It got knocked to the ground when Duncan was hit by the car.
* In the ''[[Modern Family]]'' episode "Baby On Board," Haley comes home with a paper shopping bag full of groceries so she can cook a special dinner for the family. Guess what's in the bag.
