I must drive check out assistants barmy as I pretty much never use a plastic bag to put my fruit and veg in. I just can’t see the point of putting a head of broccoli or bunch of bananas into a plastic bag. The only time I draw the line is if it’s pears which get bruised and dented so easily or if I have more than three of something!
I should probably invest less than a tenner in a set of one of these from Onya, tulle bags that are strong, see through and so lightweight that they won’t tip the scales ….
Other features include:
- Ideal for washing fruit and veg – these ingenious little bags are also designed so you can use them as a colander too
- Breathable storage prolongs life – most fruit ‘n’ veg types store better in a breathable net – not sitting in a plastic bag where they can sweat and bruise etc.
- Simply hang the bags on a hook in the pantry and again the produce will last much longer
- Just as useful in the Health Food shop for: nuts, grains, rice and lentils etc.
- Can even be used as a laundry bag for small and delicate items
- 5 mesh bags tuck into one little bag made from parachute material with karabiner hook.
