Buying Bagged Salad? Look At This

Me, I'm all about fresh these days.  When I can get fresh, that is.  Nothing worse than getting home after getting groceries and finding something that you bought is already spoiled.  Happens to me more with strawberries these days.

If you're like me and like to save time by buying your salad in a bag, check out this helpful tip.  I did not know about this before, did you?

If you buy bagged lettuce or salads, choose the bag that is the flattest. When the greens are packaged, all of the air is sucked out of the bag. Then as they age, they give off gas, making the bag puffier. Choose the flattest bag and your salad will be fresher--and last longer in the fridge without going bad.

Do you know any more tips similar to this one?  I would be interested in hearing about it!
