| Do Green Bags really keep veggies fresh? | Hot Conversation |
The company is doing heavy advertising and it seems compelling–that these bags keep air circulating and veggies stay fresher longer. But they cost, of course, so I’d love to know if they really work!

I still recommend you stop doing this for FREEEE. Value yourself enough to stop being the housekeeper (again). Get some courage and stand tall on your behalf. this is too much of a "sacrifice" of your life to save his, he is over 18 and respoSo what if he is still interested in his profile? It apparently does not bother him. It bothers you. What is lurking behind this "bother" are you husband-hunting and he is IT, and only if he takes down his profile. What are you afraid of? bYou're right, Kate, I totally missed the reference to Pretty Woman in the original post, and was imagining Julia Roberts in her Erin Brocovich role...a far different approach to convincing men to do things in the workplace!

Hi Carol,
My daughter sent me several dozen of these green bags about three years ago. At the time, I owned a small gourmet restaurant. I would order, for instance, a case of organic butter lettuce. Sometimes it would be used in a few days but other times I would end up losing alot of the product.
When I started using the bags, I found that produce lasted at least twice as long as without the bags. Also, they could be rinsed and used over and over.
My opinion—definitely worth it.
Thanks! Seems real enough…but it’s TV, so always worth checking!
Carol I couldn’t agree with you more . Who can believe anything that’s on TV? Every drug they advertise has so many side effects I’d be terrified to put a pill in my mouth, no less believe I’d be cured. As for green bags..it’s not my favorite color so I haven’t jumped on the green bag bandwagon; besides which I’d be afraid I’d use one as a gym bag instead of for veggies. Hey, do you think it would keep my work-out clothes fresher? And if so for how long?????????
Only if your worn clothes exude vegetable gases, which I’d prefer not to think about!
where can you get these except on TV…seems like someone would sell them….i’ll Google it and let you know if i find a site. i think they must be worthwhile if you could get them at a reasonable price…I hate washing/reusing any kind of food bags as I don’t think they are very sanitary and somehow always look a little “crusty” when I pull one out of the drawer 9my husband insists we just reuse the washed bags!)…..so i’d like to find a cheap source so i could throw them away after use.

I’ve seen these at Grocery stores and Target and Walmart in their “As seen on TV” section.
I bought some; they work very well. Sometimes I shop at Costco and that means quantity. I found the asparagus kept well. I recommend them for both fruit (blueberries, strawberries) as well as veggies.

Wow! What else have you bought on TV that really works?
I was told you can purchase them at Walgreens but have not looked yet…..my sister-in-law got some there and she loves them………..
I bought a very inexpensive version of the veg bags at one of those General Dollar stores and have found them very effective.
I took the plunge! Found the very ones advertised on TV at Bed, Bath and Beyond. The ultimate test: half an avocado in the bag, half in regular plastic. In the bag: bright green two days later; in plastic, you don’t want to know! So yes, I’m convinced it’s worthwhile! Esp. for those of us who go to Farmer’s Markets and can’t resist purchasing every vegetable in sight! Thanks all.
I used the bags on Bananas and strawberries and they didn’t work at all was very disapointed not what i hoped for reminds me of airborne i like Zicam better.
I know someone who tested the green bags for bread. While she loved the vege green bags, the bread bags didn’t work very well. So, don’t waste your money on the green bags for bread.
