I recently came into several cases of bagged lettuce - intended for use in “salads”. Does anybody have any advice on how I can store this for long-term use? Already, the bagged lettuce has turned brown and has started to liquify. Expiration dates on the bags read January 29. But hopefully I can salvage these bags for a treat sometime in 2030, after the SHTF. Any ideas? For now, I will store them out in the shed.

I would just toss them, otherwise Mooshy Obama’s Food Police will get wind of them and either confiscate or fine you.
Having said that, I hate buying greens already bagged-—they ALWAYS go bad, and brown, before you know it. Even some big supermarkets know better than to overload their produce areas with this kind of disappointing “convenience” packaging. (It’s convenient for THEM, but a money-waster for us). I much prefer the many stores in my area that have tons of produce, constantly misted, sitting right there cold, and on the shelving.

I don’t do anything to the eggs I store. I just put them on a shelf in the garage next to the ice cream.

Feed the lettuce to your chickens they love it that way you will have even more eggs
