When the fine folks at Clearly Fresh Bags sent me a sample of their product to test, I have to admit, I was very skeptical. Really, a plastic bag that makes food stay fresh longer?? To say the least, I had my doubts…. So let me be very “clear” when I say THESE BAGS WORK! I couldn’t believe that simply placing produce in these bags would make them last longer. Everything I tested lasted days longer than the produce out of the bags. I personally tested bananas, strawberries, lettuce and basil.
Now there are some steps to ensuring the freshest results. These are the instructions I followed from their website:
“1. Put fresh, dry, un-cooked fruit or vegetables into the bag. For best results put each produce type in its own bag – for example, apples in one bag and bananas in another.
2. Gently push out some of the air from the bag.
3. Zip the top of the bag closed.
4. Store your produce as usual.”
And this is their guide for where to store the produce:
Now with this amazing technology, you may be thinking, well how much is this going to cost? Super excited to say they are only $3.99 for a pack of 10 reusable bags! You can buy them here on the Clearly Fresh Bags website.
I bought some of those bags after I read some reviews, and I think those bags are great!! I’ve turned skeptics into believers, too!! I only wish they also were available in smaller sizes.
