I know it's crazy to need a bag for my kitchen scraps, but some how I wasn't composting when I had to bring my scrap container back into the house. With biobag I keep it in the fridge until it's full (usually a week) and then carry to the pile when I'm on my way out the door. No mess either. The bags take longer to break down than some of the contents -- about as long as a broccoli stalk.
