Just about every chain store seems to have their own custom-made tote, but which is the most functional? Stylish? And made of something you can’t pronounce? The piece compares five of the biggest contenders: Whole Foods (features a tree design by Sheryl Crow), Ralphs (made of polypropylene ), Target (too Target red-colored), 7-Eleven (“as chic as a Big Gulp”), Trader Joe’s (if you’re into acid-hued prints), and Dean & Deluca (“all style, no substance”).
