Never liked the idea of vegies in plastic bags on store shelves. Now more reason then ever to avoid the “convenience” and get vegies whole from the produce section.
I used to buy butter lettuce in a plastic container with the toots still attached, but out local Jewel stopped selling them. I still buy whole heads in a container, Gotham Greens Baby Butterhead, and it lasts almost as long.
My Mom, however, doesn’t have the patience or time. She literally works from 8am through the rest of the day until she goes to bed at night around 9. She buys bagged stuff.
I’ve got the opposite take. I watched a guy in the local store pick up a bunch of cilantro (I think) and stick his nose right in it to smell. I watch people poking and prodding and it gives me the eebie heebie. I buy most of mine prepackaged.
