annmarie780 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) I keep seeing the commercials for Debbie Meyers Green Bag saying that they work better than the regular bags in keeping your fruits and vegetables fresh. The commercials look so convincing but has anyone here on GD actually tried them and can give me feedback? Just found their website.

meinnj Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I bought a box at Target, so far I think they are great. I have only used them for bananas so far but they lasted 10 days(before the kids fininshed them) and they never bruised or turned brown at all.

Sedonahiker Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 They are GREAT! My aunt bought them and gave me a couple to try. I was amazed how much longer my lettuce and vegetables last. I have now bought a box for myself and mom. They have them at Bed Bath and Beyond for $9.99 each plus we had a coupon for $5.00 off of $20.00 so they ended up to be $7.50 each and worth every penny!!

Tommysmom Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I agree. I got them when she sold them on QVC and we love them. My veggies last so much longer and stay crisper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokanm Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 They really do work. I have used them with strawberries and celery and tomatoes..lasted much longer than normal. What I really love about them is I buy the bagged salad and I am alone so I cannot eat the whole bag and I dump the rest of the bag into a green bag and it stays fresh. Before I would attempt to eat the rest of the salad and it would already be brownish and mushy You can reuse them many times, just rinse with water and let air dry. Also Debby Meyers sells on HSN now..but I think they are cheaper at the store and there is no S&H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personaaly didn't have much luck with bagged salad, but I may try it agsin.I found that if I just put it in there..no rinsing first with anything for these bags and thengently fold over the top of the bag, it stays really fresh. I don't tie up the top of the bagor twist it shut if that helps. Good Luck BTW it says can be reused 10X..I have used mine way more than that and they are stillvery effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkeymse Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 My 5 year old son is obsessed with the commercial and has convinced people to buy them in the store... he convinced my aunt and she had to admit... they do work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crue2001 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 My 5 year old son is obsessed with the commercial and has convinced people to buy them in the store... he convinced my aunt and she had to admit... they do work!That's so funny you should say that! My 7 yr old son runs around in a panic asking for a pen every time he sees the commercial, "Mom, hurry, we have to get the phone number written down!" He must have the number written on a dozen pieces of paper by now, but he has to do it again every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meo Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 My kids are infomercial afficianados too...when I bought them at bed bath and beyond, my 7yo said "good, so now our carrots will sound like this *snap* instead of looking like this (bending motion)" ***sigh*** I like them; I like salad, but not every day; so right now I have peppers in one, strawbs in another, romaine in a third and celery in a fourth in my veggie drawer. Not a bad deal for $10 when you consider how much goes down the disposal after going bad, kwim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
