All about the Debbie Meyer Green Bag
Most of us are attempting to live healthier these days. We do our best to exercise, get sleep, and eat an adequate amount of vegetables and fruit every day. However there's nothing more frustrating than stocking up on fresh produce only to see it turn brown and wilted after a few days.
A good method to keep your produce fresh for a longer period is to store it in Debbie Meyers Green Bags. These bags can maintain the life of your fresh produce for weeks longer than you ever though possible. The bags slow down the ripening of produce and result in fresher fruit and vegetables. By slowing this ripening process, valuable vitamins can be preserved, meaning that you get more of a health benefit from your meals.
Lettuce and cabbage, which tend to wilt within a week under normal circumstances, can stay green, crisp, and fresh for weeks when stored in Debbie Meyers Green Bags. Apples stay crisp, bananas stay yellow, and celery stays crunchy for much longer than they would in regular supermarket produce bags. Even cut flowers can enjoy prolonged freshness in the bags.
Debbie Meyers Green Bags can also help to cut down on landfill waste. Unlike the plastic bags you find in supermarket produce departments, Green Bags can be rinsed and reused several times. Imagine how many single-use bags you can keep out of circulation each year - substitute and carry instead a few Green Bags with you to the supermarket and use them instead of plastic bags.
With rising food prices, it is very easy to get frustrated with the high cost of healthy organic foods. When your fruits and vegetables stay fresh until you're ready to use them, you'll get rid of less food because of premature spoilage and possibly reduce your grocery bill.
Although Green Bags feel like plastic, they are actually made from a special form of a natural mineral. They are made to absorb the ethylene gases given off by produce which contribute to ripening and spoilage. The special bag material is also made to keep down moisture and the appearance of mold and bacteria on your fruits and veggies. They perform consistently well, whether kept on the counter or in the fridge. Even cut fruit experiences a significantly longer life when wrapped in Debbie Meyers Green Bags.
Besides the obvious benefits of reducing landfill waste and keeping produce fresh for longer, these wonderful bags can also cut out the disorganization in your refrigerator. Green bags take up less space than Tupperware and its clones and can be stored right in the fruit drawer and vegetable crisper. You can keep a stack in your car or purse and always have them ready for market trips. It will take little time, you'll notice that you are having to get rid of less spoiled items and enjoying lower grocery bills.
