One can be recycled up to 10 times. One not at all.
According to this article, recycled plastic of any type is no longer food grade.

5 trillion bags are used every year across the globe—and that the average use time per bag is 12 minutes.Part of the issue has to do with the promises that product manufacturers made about recycling, and the hard realities of plastic collection and reuse. In 2018, the Environmental Protection Agency estimated that just 8.7% of all plastics were actually recycled.DeezerShoove » 18 Feb 2024, 9:10 am » wrote: ↑ The 7 basic categories.

The EPA is as reliable as ANY governmental agency.

We can't have anything nice.
Plastics seemed benign when first brought into production.
Now they poison and choke the planet.
Nuclear energy seemed like a good thing except for the destruction...
Computers were great at one time. Now they are intrusive tools.
(That recent one hour Carlson interview is scary/interesting).
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

there has to be an answer that doesn’t include banning plastics
we are/should be smarter than this

I'm old enough to remember the big switch from glass and paper packaging to plastic... and I also remember thinking at the time how stupid it was, since plastic didn't seem to naturally decompose at nearly the speed of paper and/or glass.Mrkelly » 18 Feb 2024, 7:35 pm » wrote: ↑ something has to be done with all this plastic

Even as a kid it seemed like a stupid thing to do.
