Bolsa Caca


When I was a kid there was one Spanish word I knew from the playground - caca - it always provoked a giggle. So imagine my surprise to see the Bolsa Caca campaign cropping up all over Madrid.

bolsa (feminine noun)
1. bag

caca (feminine noun)
1. poo (informal) (excremento) poop (United States)
2. nasty or dirty thing (cosa sucia)
3. garbage (United States)



It's all part of an effort to reduce the number of plastic bags used in Spain.
