Luster Leaf Rapiclip Light Duty Soft Wire Tie 839 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These are pliable twist ties for the vegetable garden. They can be used to tie up your tomato plants as they grow (among other things). I used to use old rags to tie up my tomato plants. That was much cheaper than these soft twist ties, but not as nice to look at. So, if you are willing to spend a few dollars, your vegetable garden can look very nice. Also, I suppose you could use them in a flower garden too. Sometimes flowers get tall and top heavy. These ties would be ideal for attaching the flower to a stake because they are soft. Plus they are green just like the plant stalk and leaves, so the tie blends in and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

Chopstick Folding Basket - Great Kitchen Fruit & Vegetable Basket - Medium Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My order arrived MUCH sooner than projected, the items are all high quality and beautifully crafted. ...And of course this is a great cause to support!
The basket is impeccable! And as a bit of a germaphobe I love how the product label explains the construction process, and mentions that the chopsticks were all pre-sanitized. =>

The idea is simple: collect post-use, single-use chopsticks from restaurants, thoroughly clean them, sanitize them at extremely high temperature and pressure, and use them to make high-quality accents for the living space. The idea is Kwytza (pronounced k-why-tsa) Kraft. Research shows that literally billions of single-use chopsticks are consumed annually. The more shocking revelation was that it takes, by some estimates, 25 million trees and bamboo plants to support that resource waste. After extensive research and development efforts, including a unique process for reclaiming and thoroughly sanitizing chopsticks, Kwytza was born. Bryan Parks created these wonderful products by pairing eastern aesthetics with western conservationism. In an effort to be more environmentally friendly, the colored chopsticks are all dyed using natural plants.

flip and tumble 5-Pack Reusable Produce Bags Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been using these bags for a few months and get asked all the time where I purchased them. I have been taking my own reusable grocery bags for a while and always felt bad about still using plastic for produce. They are holding up well so far and wash well. You can see through the bags, so the grocer can see the tags easily when making your purchase. The last time I was at the local natural grocer, the checker asked again where I got them and wrote the name down. They may want to carry them in the store, since they get asked for something like this often. By the way, the Flip & Tumble Reusable Tote - Brown grocery bags are great, too. I always have one in my bag so that I am not often left without a reusable bag.

Peak Fresh Re-Usable Produce Bags, Set of 10 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My brother and I decided to try 2 different brands of these bags. He went with the Debbie Meyer and I tried these. (Ok, so he makes a lot more $ than I do!!!). We started on the same day with the same fruit and produce in them and kept monitoring to see which one worked best. They are still both going strong and neither he or I have experienced any spoiled fruit or veggies in almost 2 months. They work so well, we decided to share our quantities with one another just for the bag color difference. We will both purchase THIS product in the future in various sizes. No need to pay more. One clue: trick to keeping condensation from forming inside bag (which rots the food) is to place a few crumpled up paper towels in the bag with the food. Also, I don't close the bag up real tight, but rather scrunch the top together but put it loosely in the frig or on the counter. This way no moisture builds up inside the bag from the gases being released from the food and I don't have to keep wiping the 'wet' from the inside of the bag.
Edit: Nov 2, '09-it has been several months since original purchase of this product and I have finally thrown out the original few bags I used at the onset. Not because they are no longer working effectively, but they have become a bit ratty looking from all the washing, rinsing and re-use. If all the bags in this small box last this long, purchasing this product once/year with just 10 bags is a dream come true. (thinking of giving brother some more for Christmas (giggle)- he'll be set for life! ;)

Preserve the freshness of your fruits and vegetables at home with Peak Fresh Re-Usable Produce Bags, which help to remove ethylene (ripening gas) from within the bag to ensure your produce stays at its peak freshness. Unlike ordinary plastic bags, Peak Fresh bags "breathe" so that damaging gases produced by the fresh produce are removed. Most fruit and vegetables release ethylene gas after harvest, and exposure of the produce to the gas accelerates aging and ultimate deterioration.
This low-density polyethylene film is impregnated with a natural occurring mineral that significantly increases gas permeability, allowing small amounts of ethylene to be removed. The increased permeability allows for the discharge of other gases such as carbon dioxide and ammonia. The mineral also has good deodorizing properties. The bag also has an anti-fog additive in the film that reduces the formation of water drops, and thus reducing the potential development of damaging bacteria.
Pre-cool warm fruit and vegetables in refrigerator before storing in bag. Use a separate bag for each type of produce. Produce must be dry.

Garlic and Shallot Vegetable Keep Sack by Orka Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's exactly as it looks. The plastic pincher that hold the drawstring closed seems a little cheap but it hasn't given me any problems yet and I've been using them for about a month. It's cute. It's stylish. It does its job. Can't ask for more. I'd recommend washing it before use.

But I don't recommend using the Orka Hook that's displayed with it. It's useless and cheap.
