Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Debbie Meyer Green Bags
Customer Review: BUYER BEWARE!
Summary: 1 Stars
When I learned how they work, I thought, "Won't the ethylene gas the produce give off get trapped in the bag? How will they stay fresher longer, then?"
Bur I decided to give them a try anyway. I mean, they have to work or they wouldn't sell, right?
Well, BUYER BEWARE! The fruit did stay looking pretty much longer than it's original shelf life, but when I opened up the fruit, it was spoiled on the inside! And it spoiled much faster than without the bag (but they looked perfect on the outside). All the fruit, veggies, and greens were wasted. And all the money I spent on the food and the bags, too! So I guess that verified my initial theory of trapped ethylene gas.
Seems like it's going to be another one of those fly-by-night make a quick buck schemes.
Customer Review: Bags don't work
Summary: 1 Stars
I just ate a canteloupe that was in my new green bag for a week and it tasted mealy and weird, not really rotten, but unlike any canteloupe I have ever tasted. So I came on here to see if it could be because of these bags and saw all of the 1 star reviews. Unfortunately, I have to agree with them. The fruit looks good on the outside and is still firm, but I will be throwing out these bags as well as my not so old produce that is in them. In addition, my tomatoes rotten in 2 days in the bag.Customer Review: Bananas last a whole week now
Summary: 3 Stars
These work. Only thing is you need to turn them inside out daily because condensation inside the bag. I think they make one that absorbs moisture - I'll try them out next time.Customer Review: Been Tested
Summary: 1 Stars
A TV station where I live (Pittsburgh) tested these things out. The results were not promising. There were two vegetables - green peppers and something else - that the bags did work for. They extended their freshness marginally. None of the fruits or vegetables remained fresh for 30 days, as the ad says. I fully acknowledge that my experience with this product isn't firsthand. But it does sound like your money might be best spent elsewhere.Customer Review: Buyer Beware. This product does not work.
Summary: 1 Stars
I know this item caught your eye a few times, both on TV and online. But I need to pass on that this product does not work. Do not waste your money. In fact, the bags tend to make some produce rot faster than when stored in other containers. Maybe this mystery green film absorbs the gasses released by produce as it ages, but it does not absorb or control moisture. It's virtually impossible to dry some types of produce, like berries, mushrooms, lettuce and sprouts. Even in storing bananas, the claims are false. The bananas release a sticky film (fructose, I imagine) that sticks to the inside of the bag. I believe the bananas rotted quicker once this happened. I am still using up my green bags so I don't feel like a complete idiot, but I have a feeling that I will abandon this fruitless (no pun intended) effort and resort to using them for pooper-scooper bags in the very near future.
