As a total gag, I got Marty a stocking stuffer that was a pure whim item from the Impulse Aisle at Wal-Mart (where they have "impulse buys" down to a fine science.)
Debbie Meyer Green Bags -- www.greenbags.com -- are just flippin amazing. Little did I know! When Marty went back in the hospital again right after Christmas, we had a bunch of fresh produce in the fridge, and given how much time we were spending at the hospital, we sure as hell didn't do much cooking or eating at home.
So I pulled out his box of Green Bags, and stuffed all the veggies and such into them. Would you believe, those damn bags kept everything crispy-fresh for, like, an unbelievable, surreal amount of time! I mean alien-intervention amount of time. I had romaine lettuce in a salad that was close to three weeks old, and it was fine!
"As Seen on TV" has usually translated in my head as "total fucking scam" -- but these bags actually work wonders. I love them.
Who'd a thought?
