 Eh. October 5, 2008

I gave 2 stars rather than 1, b/c they did work a LITTLE.
The trick to keeping your stuff super fresh...is you have to take them out of the bag and wipe out the bag every day. That's a lot of maintenance. Bagged items in the fridge keep longer than bagged items on the counter. I leave my bananas and tomatoes on the counter...they lasted at most two days longer than normal.
Moisture starts to collect on the inside of the bag almost immediately. The box does say to wipe out any moisture...but it doesn't tell you that the moisture is ever-present. More moisture for counter top items than frdige items (the cooler in your fridge works like an A/C and de-humidifies the air inside the fridge).
I also got a hold of something called the greens keeper. It's fabric and works great for my leafy greens. I have been using that with good success (fresh leaves after a week), and just stick to buying less items at a time when it comes to things like bananas, tomatoes, and other food that quickly expire.
 Pretty cool bags September 25, 2008

I have used these with a few different vegetables so far, and I think that they really do extend the life of them. There are plenty of bags in the box to last you a while if you re-use them. So, I would recommend these to anyone with refrigerators full of veggies that don't get used immediately.

I have not been able to eat all the Bartlett pears from costco in years but with these bags I now can. They don't rot so fast.
They work for me! September 15, 2008

I ordered these from a tv commercial a few months ago. They certainly extend the life of bananas, I can keep salad fixings longer. Bought Blueberries in bulk on sale using only a cup or two at at time and they held in the refrig for over 3 weeks!!!
Just be sure to leave produce as is from the market and only wash/rinse prior to use.
They do work!!! September 12, 2008
A. Savalia (MD, USA)
These bags really do work. they worked for me!! I had washed all my vegetables and then stored them in this bag. I followed the instructions -- Put the vegetables in the bag, fold the bag over, and store. The items lasted over 2 weeks more than regular.
Little Tomatoes: Lasted almost a month, saw no wrinkles, only 2 or so rotted from inside. But the rest were fine.
Bananas: Probably lasted one more week than usual but these did not do too well. They did rot from inside out.
Cucumber: Did extremely well. Stayed fresh for over a month.
Avacados: These did really well too. They stayed fresh almost a month. They started to go bad from inside as it stayed in the bag longer.
Grapes: Did not too well. They probably stayed one more week extra.
Overall, for $10.00(20 bags at walmart) these are a must buy. You will save much more in price as you will have to buy less.
