I'm not very fond of it, but many are.Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10399355496247854818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3275842783211542349.post-72059964091734550682011-12-04T15:43:49.015-05:002011-12-04T15:43:49.015-05:00How to buy fresh fruit and veggies economically is...How to buy fresh fruit and veggies economically is a problem I have, too. You've come up with some wonderful solutions here. Lettuce, even when it isn't on sale, is most irksome. You can't squeeze or freeze it, so I either have to eat a lot of green salad until it's gone, or buy the smallest head to begin with which offends my penny-pinching side because a small head is the same price as a large one. <br /><br />I have, however, found my salad spinner is worth every penny I paid for it. If I spin the lettuce absolutely bone dry (after washing, of course), then store in an air-tight container, it last much longer than if not spun dry.JamaGeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16973656461323918279noreply@blogger.com
