What Would You Ban in Sharon?

A number of communities have deep-sixed some interesting items and activities over the past year, but should Sharon join the banning bandwagon?

Concord’s so-called bottle ban became a bylaw earlier this week, Brookline recently banned plastic bags and foam cups, and Arlington’s Town Meeting this fall upheld a seasonal leaf blower ban.

Meanwhile, home-cooked foods have been forced out of many schools, an ostensible attempt to protect against allergies and childhood obesity.

Sharon hasn’t hopped on this banning bandwagon, but should it?
