  Hey, I think we had a discussion about this a while ago, but I finally found some of those "Green Bags" that help keep fruits and veggies fresh at BB & B. I don’t know what results others have had, but I tried them and they work GREAT on bananas! I was very pleasantly surprised. Something that actually worked as advertised, I am amazed.

  Yep! Sorry I got lazy, it is Bed, Bath & Beyond. I’ve seen them on TV but scored a box in the store.

  So are these the ones that have tiny holes/slits in them to allow the exchange of air with the outside, but keep the moisture in? I think I have seen these in the supermarket, but never tried them. With 3 rabbits of my own and 4 fosters, I end up going to the green grocer 3 times a week anyway. Stuff doesn’t last long enough to spoil.

  I use those too and I think they really do help. I always let my veggies air dry first and then stuff them in these bags and they do keep the greens fresh all week.

  it works with bananas? i find mine works well but only if i keep it moist. if i dry the greens then they’re all wilted the next day. wierd that drying works for others. maybe its climate related. what kind of green bag? was it like this:

  KiimberlyandDarren, they are for veggies and fruits for both humans and bunnies. Babybunsmum, these are different because they slow the aging process of the veggie or over-ripening of them. They claim to absrob & remove damaging gases.” The gas being ethylene gas that fruits, veggies & flower emit during the ripening process which accelerates ripening/aging. I don’t know all the science behind it, but they really work from what I’ve experienced.
