Product Description All Fruits & Vegetables Stay Fresh Longer Saves Money by Eliminating Waste! How Debbie Meyer GreenBags™ Work: They absorb and remove damaging gases: Most fruits, vegetables and flowers release ethylene gases furthering the natural ripening process after harvest. Exposure of the produce to these gases accelerates aging and deterioration. Debbie Meyer GreenBags™ are made with a natural mineral 'Oya®" that extends the life of produce by absorbing and removing the ethylene gases that cause normal deterioration. Allows use of entire refrigerator for storage...store in the refrigerator or on counter top, wherever you would normally store your fruits and vegetables. Each bag is re-usable 8-10 times...simply rinse, allow to dry, and re-use. Absorbs and Removes Ethylene Gas! Use Debbie Meyer GreenBags™ for all of your fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, and even your cut flowers! Debbie Meyer GreenBags™ are gusseted for maximum storage capacity! Made in the USA
Used properly - without moisture - they are greatApril 25, 2008 Rita B(Roslyn, PA United States) 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
Important - moisture is the enemy.
I've been using these bags for over 8 months and they really extend the
life of my produce. The important thing is to make sure you limit the amount of moisture inside the bag. I put in one or two paper towels
before closing the bag. Every now and then, I'll check to replace the
towel when it feels wet, and wipe away any condensation in the bag.
Before I learned this trick, I had some disappointing results, but now
they work great!
Edited to add:
I agree with the comments about bananas. They don't work well.
I know some say they don't do anything, but they work in my kitchen!April 18, 2008 M. McTamney(New Jersey) 25 out of 26 found this review helpful
I belong to a veggie co-op, and get veggies every two weeks. I never know what I'm going to get until a few days before, and so storage is important (while I figure out what to do with bok choy!). These bags work. I don't know how, I don't know what the gimmick is, or the science, but I can tell you that before I started using them, I threw out a bunch of veggies every two weeks (from the previous batch), and now, man, sometimes I can't even tell which ones are the new and which ones are the old.
I mean it - they work that well for me. Especially on greens. I have lettuce in the drawer in a green bag right now that I KNOW is over 2 weeks old, and it's still crisp and fresh. That never used to happen.
I wouldn't have believed it myself if I hadn't started using them. And I'm not sure how one reviewer found that even though they look good, they're rotton on the inside - that has NOT happened to me at all.
I mean, it - I have month-old carrots in there that I can't tell from the ones I got today. Still crunchy and still snap when you bend them.
And I DO reuse them, and have not seen any decline in their effectiveness, even after washing several times. The only time I chuck them is if, once in a while, something does eventually go bad in them. (Hey, it happens to the best of us.) I don't reuse those - I just throw them away.
I use these bags, and I'll never stop.
If I had not seen the results I wouldn't believe it!!!March 11, 2008 S. Silver(Suwanee, GA USA) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I bought these about a year ago, and it is incredible how long fruits and vegetables last in these bags. I have banana's on my counter that have been there for about 8 days and still look like they did when I bought them.
These bags save me a lot of money. I never have to throw away food that rots before I can eat it anymore!! Thank you so much for these food bags!
AMAZING!April 14, 2008 Charliecat 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I found these at a local health food store and they're amazing! They keep fruits and vegetables fresh long after they would have been thrown away otherwise. I've got mandarin oranges sitting on my counter in a Green Bag that have been there for over TWO WEEKS - and they're just as fresh as the day I bought them. I'm sure I'll get another week or more out of them still.
Won't be without these now that I've tried them.
They work great for us!January 23, 2008 mad mama 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
We bought a set of the Debbie Meyer green bags a few weeks ago and so far they have definitely extended the life of our produce. We have had excellent results with bananas, lettuce, lemons, apples and green peppers. I bought bananas that were a little too ripe for my taste (they had no green on them) on a Sunday and by Thursday they still had not ripened any further. I definitely think they are worth the money.
